In this year's digital fabrication Digital Fabrication module, we will attempt to give substance to the fantastic phenomena governed by quantum mechanics. Students will create lively physical representations of impossible formations of matter at a macro scale, that disobey the conventions of classical physics. Can they move backwards, and forwards through time? Do they split, duplicate or merge our everyday lives Do they exist simultaneously in one place and another? Do they behave differently when observed? What possibilities exist for interaction between people and such exotic substances?
Students will explore the topic with sketches, rendering and and 3D printed objects and a short animation. This animation of an Impossible material-energy formation will will be supported by a brief explanatory text situating it in the real world. See more information in the Project Briefs.
