Hello, my name is Michaela<\/b><\/span>. I am in my last semester of my undergraduate Computer Science (CS) degree. I am finishing my 5th year, as I had to take many math classes prior to my focus on CS. I was almost 20 years out of school at that point, so I had to start from the very beginning. I am very excited to be done with my degree and I have a few exciting things lined after I graduate. I am excited to be in this class and I chose to take this class because I heard it was an amazing class with an interesting and creative focus. I like to be artsy sometimes, so it immediately caught my interest.<\/p>\n\n

I was looking for fun computational design and I ultimately chose the 3D printed fabric. I love fashion and style, so I was naturally drawn to this discipline of computational design.
It is a fairly new discipline, where the material is co-fabricated in the macroscopic form which uses the machine to 3D print it. The different fabrics are made by the weaving or knitting together many threads into a cohesive whole 3D-printed fabric. Since the printer can\u2019t readily weave individual fibers together there are a variety of methods used to make the materials. The simplest method seems to be the chainmail method, where many small individual links join together to make a relatively rigid material.<\/p>\n\n\n
