Lecturers: Luke Franzke, Clemens WinklerWinkler$

Format: Hybrid

All inputs and mentoring will take place over Zoom. However, in order to use the 3D printers and to make a video recording of the final outcomes, students will be required to periodically work from the atelier or the Workshop. 

Course Goals

In this course, students gain an insight into methods and techniques that blur the boundary between digital and analogue, virtual and physical. Students gain insights into principles from geometry and formation processes from nature. The course provides a number of skills that are highly transferable to various aspects of prototyping for interaction designers.

We experience a world ruled by the principles of classical physics. We can feel gravity, mass, acceleration, and observe the effects of surface tension or magnetism. Yet, the substances that surround us are made from waves and particles governed by alien rules that are completely incongruous with what we perceive. Sometimes, one thing is in two places at the same time, or perhaps everywhere all the time. Some substances behave differently if you are looking at them, and when you are not. Others interact with substances that could be kilometres away, what Einstein described as "spooky action at a distance". 

In this year's digital fabrication module, we will attempt to give substance to these hidden fantastic phenomena, by creating lively physical representations of Impossible Materials that disobey the conventions of classical physics. Can they move backwards, and forwards through time? Do they split or merge universes? What possibilities exist for interaction between people and such exotic substances?
