CRFT 203 Computers for Object MakersCollege of Art, Media & Design School of Art
3 credits 90.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course
This course covers computer processes useful as compliments to traditional craft ways of making. 3D Scanning gives the artist/designer a digital replica that can then be changed in scale or manipulated in other ways. 3D Computer Modeling programs create files that can then be turned into physical objects using 3D printing. Also covered will be laser cutting for stack-lamination (building forms by gluing up layers of plywood or other sheet materials) and ‘unfolding’ software (creating patterns for fabric and other sheet materials that can then be sewn or seamed into 3D form). Previous 3D computer modeling experience is not required.
This course is not repeatable for credit.
