Computational fabrication enables people to design digital forms by writing&nbsp;code and then construct these forms via fabrication machines like 3D printers, CNC routers, knitting machines, and laser cutters. In this course, students will explore different&nbsp;algorithms, machines, and materials by designing and creating a series of objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will be introduced to computer-aided-design (CAD) software for 2D and 3D design along with programming languages aimed at the design of physical&nbsp;artifacts. The course will also&nbsp;cover the process of converting digital designs to physical form through computer-aided machining (CAM). Finally, we will&nbsp;explore research opportunities related to computational design and fabrication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Images, from left to right: Zaha Hadid\u2019s Heydar Aliyev Center, ceramics by Bryan Czibesz, lamp by Nervous Sytem, bench by Genesis Design, dress&nbsp;by Iris van Herpen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><\/meta><strong>Materials and Equipment<\/strong><br>Students must purchase their own 3D printer and filament for the class.
