I decided to print all 6 of my forms using porcelain clay and the Eazao printer. I used the slicer I made over the summer to print the forms, and it worked really well. There were significant overhangs on many of the forms, but they did not sag at all. One of the forms almost fell over as I was moving it, but I was able to save it. I enjoyed seeing all the forms made out of clay.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex

class=\"wp-element-caption\">All Parameters Changing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I enjoyed designing parametrically. I liked the acton of playing with sliders to create different forms. I found that it took a lot of back and forth to design the original base vessel form that I really liked. It would look good and then I would rotate my view and I would see something that I did not like about it. I also found it difficult to limit the number of parameters. I found that even with just six curves defining the forms, the number of possible parameters quickly made the system complex. At first I considered using both circles and ellipses to define the form, but then I became temped to want to control each axis of the ellipse as well as rotation. I landed on just using circles and confining myself to three parameters for each circle. This left me open to exploring and highlighting the random movements of these three parameters more. I enjoyed designing these forms from horizontally oriented circles. My first experience as a maker was as a potter, where forms can be thought of as a profile curve and a central axis that it rotates around. I still like thinking of form this way, but one thing I love about digital modeling and parametric design is it allows for many different forms that do not have to have such rigid symmetry. There are still underlying rules that dictate the types of forms, but there are so many more possibilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since I have experience with 3D modeling as well as parametric design and I use it as my main design tool in my artistic practice, I felt like I could control the forms I was making. I think about control a lot in my work, and I wanted to play with that in this series of vessels. I wanted to have full control over the base form, and then I wanted to give up that control and let the random number generator of the computer decide the rest of the forms. In this sense, the computer is helping me generate most of my designs. Howeve, I did not give up full control as I chose the range of variation that each parameter would have. I also looked at about 40 randomly generated forms and decided on the five vessels I wanted to make in addition to my base form. Maybe this work was about the illusion of lack of control. I do feel like I can take authorship and ownership over this work. I was involved in all aspects of the design and was intensional about the idea as well as when and how I introduced randomness and chance into the system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Grasshopper File:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FriedmanGerlicz_LA2_Vessels.gh\">https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FriedmanGerlicz_LA2_Vessels.gh<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to make vessels out of six circles stacked on top of each other.
