week 13

 

week 12

 

Will redo the parts highlighted in red later this week. Was thinking that I could also use the same setting from the fold lines to show the numbers for the clock. This way it would be more clear what the object is.

week 11

Laser cutting one object using three different techniques.

I just decided to do an earlier object to cut instead of the extracted model of the dormitory.

Stacking

Radial interlocking

The model didn't really translate well with this technique at all, it's mostly a janky mess.

Folded panels

Need to try again with Pepakura instead of Slicer as it was too complicated. Either this or try to remesh the object to lower poly before importing it into slicer.

Reduced the amount of polygons by ~ 99 % ish and figured out that you can edit the seams in Slicer. I think this is definitely more realistic to fold.

week10

 

Model of the Hongik Dormitory extracted from smap.seoul.go.kr using Renderdoc and MapsModelsImporter for Blender. A noise map made from a sound recording was then applied for the "pixel sorting" effect.

An attempt to put this model together. This was an experience / failure. I think i put the power on the laser cutting machine too low as some of the pieces broke when i tried to take them out of the sheet. I think I also missed a little bit with the thickness of the layers as they could barely fit. It was however a good experience as i hopefully won't make these mistakes again.

Another way to fabricate this model could be to use the same technique from last week just with fewer layers.

week 09

 

Laser cutting the photogrammetry model

Tried laser cutting the photogrammetry object made earlier but encountered an error with the laser cutting program (C0000005 when importing the .AI file).

Even more experimentation since I'm so indecisive.

This is a further attempt to visualise magnetic field lines of every day objects. I think this could be a good project but maybe that I have to visualise it differently. The way i currently did it is additive, where I show the magnetic field lines around the object itself sort of like a cage. However maybe it could be done uniform instead (boolean that only shows where the clock model and the field lines overlap), where I show the magnetic field lines in the form of gills or onion layers?

Alarm clock from Daiso

Locating the magnets

Here the magnetic fields are visualised around the object

Maybe it could be done like this, where the gills put together form the clock?

Rough version of what it could look like
