Criado em 2010, o símbolo faz referência ao mundo dos jogos, refletindo o fato de que os mundos digital e analógico formam uma única realidade. Em 2015, foi modelado em 3D para ser usado no troféu de premiação dos melhores projetos de conclusão de curso.

horizneg01_ serradocurral_finalpeca_negativa.stl André Mintz & Janaína Rodrigues Negative Horizon #1 - Serra do Curral is the first iteration of a project which seeks to explore through 3D fabrication the transformations of the landscape produced by mining activity in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. This object is a 3D rendering of Serra do Curral, a hill that surrounds the state’s capital Belo Horizonte and which is the reason to its name (which means “Beautiful Horizon”). The piece represents the negative of the terrain - the hole generated by iron mining, usually not visible from the city’s vantage point.

DataGnomeKD1.stl Karin + Shane Denson hyperrhiz.io/hyperrhiz13/sensors-data-bodies/ manifest-data.html These are “data gnomes” - garden gnomes whose faces have been replaced by 3D objects generated out of data captured from personal web-browsing sessions by a piece of benign spyware installed knowingly on the subjects’ own computers. The pieces, made in the context of the art/theory project “Manifest Data” conducted by the S-1: Speculative Sensation Lab at Duke University, engage issues of data materiality, privacy, and the darker sides of “maker culture” and “participatory culture.”

phiModel - 38.stl Alexandra Antonopoulou & Eleanor Dare The Phi Books is an interdisciplinary collaborative project initiated by Dr. Eleanor Dare and Dr. Alexandra Antonopoulou in 2008. The project uses the house as a metaphor for interdisciplinary collaboration and is a response to the inadequacy of historical models for both theorizing and practicing creative research collaboration, and to an apparent lack of theoretical mobility across diverse disciplines.

It has employed narrative, storytelling, audience participation, code-writing, performance, maths, sophisticated motion tracking technology as well as custom software to explore how borders, walls, and doors facilitate collaboration.

This is a 3d model of a space within the Phi Books houses. It is taken from its VR version which was heavily textured with image-stories. While the artists have been using physical modelling as a way of radical writing throughout the project, they were interested to see what happens if you strip these models of the semantics of their textures. These new materialisations are for them a material blank canvas that invites new layers of collaborative authorship.

Castor - Erika Cardona.obj Erika Cardona Castor is an interplanetary traveller. His job is to map out the universe in great detail and so he travels to gather information from each galaxy. His mechanical eye gathers information which is then stored in his helmet. The springs in his legs act as shock absorbers that allow him to jump from great heights without causing his damage.

1. Our general concern is that cinema will end due to scarcity. The obsolescence of film foreshadows a time when the medium can no longer muster what is necessary to endure. It is however more likely that cinema will collapse under its own weight. The excess of cinema in other media will dilute it to a point beyond recognition. By seeping into every nook and cranny of human affairs, cinema will no longer be anywhere.

4. In their difference from their on-screen counterparts, each of these plastic renderings express a tangible becoming now latent in computational representation. In their resemblance to one another, they emphasize images to be but the configurations of a surface, contingent to the affordances of the underlying material.

2. The reliance of industrial filmmaking practices on computational simulation accelerates the disintegration of cinema. Spatial synthesis increases productivity by decreasing intermedial friction. In your regular Hollywood blockbuster, virtual worlds lurk outside the boundaries of every other frame. It becomes easier, if not expected, for movie sets to be turned into videogame stages; famous actors into action figures; throbbing luminous images into hollow plastic ones.

3. APPROXIMATELY 800cm 3 OF PLA provides an extremely partial & skewed view of the current state of 3D imagery by rendering it into a slightly more stable material. These models were received by e-mail and printed on site, in response to open online calls. The entire exhibition amounts to the volume contained in a standard 1kg spool of biodegradable thermoplastic filament (the eponymous 800cm 3 of PLA).

5. This exhibition, the third in the project, was put together for the Center for 21 st Century Studies’

APPROXIMATELY 800cm3 OF PLA is the amount of plastic contained in a standard 1kg spool of 3D printing filament. For this exhibition project, the material is employed in the fabrication of virtual models received by e-mail, resulting in a cabinet of post-digital curiosities.

Here is documented the collection of objects produced in the third edition of the project, providing a skewed snapshot of the state-of-art of 3D computer imaging.
