Glassworks: Interdisciplinary Exploration of 3D Printing and Glass Investment Casting

A new interdisciplinary research initiative which seeks to establish novel applications for glass investment casting through the use of 3D printed mould patterns. The research explores how complete design and production workflows can be established that links analogue craft skills with 3D printing and other digital technologies such as virtual reality drawing, 3D scanning and parametric modelling.

Women’s Rights Are Humans Rights: International Posters on Gender-based Inequality, Violence, and Discrimination
