Co-authored by Scott Hudson, this paper explores creating a sustainable, biodegradable 3D printing material from spent coffee grounds (SCG) combined with non-toxic, home-friendly binders like carboxymethyl cellulose and xanthan gum. The researchers emphasize a low-energy, zero-waste approach, avoiding thermoplastics and instead utilizing SCG&#8217;s natural biodegradability, recyclability, and compostability. By prototyping items such as espresso cups and planter pots, the work demonstrates practical applications and underscores opportunities in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) for eco-friendly materials in personal fabrication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Relating this to Hudson&#8217;s colloquium talk on Wednesday, &#8220;The Future is not What it Used to be,&#8221; both the talk and paper underline a transformative shift in technical HCI, where material innovations align with sustainable practices. Hudson&#8217;s talk stressed that advancements in computing power and HCI should inspire new methodologies and visions, urging the community to utilize emerging technologies in eco-conscious ways. What I particularly got out of this was that advancements in computing power and HCI also close technical gaps such as how to use a particular tool. And if that&#8217;s covered, then that opens up a lot more room for exploring what materials tools get to work with, such as innovative, biodegradable materials. All in all, this paper exemplifies Hudson&#8217;s message by reimagining fabrication materials, integrating sustainability principles with scalable, accessible design methods suitable for everyday users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The paper that stood out to me for this assignment was &#8220;Designing a Sustainable Material for 3D Printing with Spent Coffee Grounds&#8220;.
