For the masterclass/workshop, artists, designers, creators and thinkers are called to reflect on the potential of the 3D printer as a tool of play, critical expression, and community building. Over two days masterclass participants will reflect on digital forms of appropriation, in homage to the...

About this workshop Workshop presentation: link: link: link ( available for 14 days )Source: link have developped 2 main...
Mechatronics is the combination of mechanics, electronics and (more recently) computing to create programmable mechanical machines. This design process can be applied for example to robotics, it's also the basis of machines such as drawbots or RepRap, Makerbot or Ultimaker printers....
Introduction to Physical Computing - ArduinoThese sessions are an introduction to "Physical computing" or how to create a digital object that can interact with its close or remote environment. We will also explore the connection with a computer, thus allowing it to interface with the "physical...
An openLAB Masterclass with Marius WatzParticipants will explore how software processes can be combined with digital fabrication to produce physical objects that are the result of dynamic software systems, opening new fields for artists, designers and other creative people. Specifically, we will...
Weaving Code is located at the crossroad of hand weaving, programming and 3D printing.The basic computer language made of 0s and 1s originated in the automation of looms. Weaving code connects hand-weaving to 3D printing. While a piece of textile is produced on the loom, an object is generated by...
Small stool designed using Fusion 360 and build using CNC cutting machine on 18mm Multiplex.
Stagiaire pour 4 mois au FabLab de l'iMAL j'ai réalisé un test de découpe avec la laser pour apprendre à utiliser cette machine. 
Dungeons and Dragons is a roleplaying game that sometimes needs a board to clarify the events.The game master board consists of a base grid and modular add-ons that can be attached to represent walls, other floors, roofs,... and a series of token to indicate traps and other dangers. The whole...
So I got myself a new tablet computer and made a leather sleeve for it. this was the occasion to try raster engraving which I had never done before. 
_Concepts>_ Un formalisme à l'intersection de l'architecture, de la science fiction /fantasy et de l'anatomie.>_ Comment passer d'un objet 2D (une feuille de papier) à un objet 3D en un minimum d'opérations?-> curved line folding: dans l'origami traditionnel, le papier est plié selon des...
Fablab chessboardDuring a 4-day workshop in IMAL through experimentation with machinery and materials the chessboard was made. The chessboard-project consists of 3 different minor projects (chess pieces, chessboard and a mold holding the pawns) made by using CNC- & Lasercut- machinery. ...
The idea behind this project was to make a modular sculpture composed of different 2D elements that could be fit together to make a 3D structure.I based my components off of a small sketch I made that had a combination of organic and rigid forms. The components I made with the lasercutter were...
Réalisation d'une maquette au 1:25 du théatre Varia pour y inscrire une scénographie de la pièce Woyzeck. La maquette ayant une taille importante est imaginée pour pouvoir etre démontée et facilement transportable. Elle est réalisée en carton gris de 2 mm d'épaisseur. Un système de treuil...
Au cours de la semaine atypique du cursus de l'Atelier B1 Scénographie de La Cambre, L'exercice proposé etant de matérialiser des praticables a l'échelle 1/50 de différente tailles, ainsi que de se familiariser avec la modelisation 3D ainsi que l'impression 3D (Et la coupe au laser lors du...
Actuellement en scénographie à la Cambre, je travaille sur un projet rendant compte d’un parcours à la raffinerie (molenbeek), en utilisant exclusivement des éléments présent dans les théâtres (perches, pendrillons, frise, praticable…). Pour représenter ce projet, je vais faire une maquette (...

We started to make these sewing-free masks based on the design of Maïté Dupont from City Fab 1.You can find the design here and the smartcarve files in the zip.
"3D printing gauge aiding manuel operation, of making straight wholes in the multiplex of 18mm with a certain interface"Catagorie: TOOLMaterial: PLA, SteelProcess: 3D printing, lathe Software: Onshape, CuraPart: Hexagon connection nutDimension:  H45mm x L 25mm X D 29.75mm
First exercise to train myself on the pratical use of the Ultimaker 3D printer and Cura.As a start, I generated a female human body using MakeHUman (www.makehumancommunity.org).Then I createdd a new pose using Blender.Still with Blender I generated the .stl file to feed in Cura.Then printing with...
Infinite mantra karaoke est un générateur de texte en continu, tel un prompteur qui fait apparaître sur l’écran des textes au fur et à mesure, à la manière d’un karaoké. Les textes sont générés par un algorithme de type machine learning. Le vocabulaire, la tournure et le ton sont inspirés (aspirés)...
We had a 4 day workshop at Wikimal and had the opportunity to try out the 3D printers, the lasercutter and the fraser/cnc machine.I focused on the problem of displaying paper projects, such as posters, or drawings. I wanted something to support it and something that it could hang on.So I made my...
