Not everyone has treated our remote-learning status as lost time for 3D making. For some of us it has brought about the exploration of new territories, prompting investigation into “doing more with less” (less access to creative spaces, to certain materials, to certain machines).

Others have found ways to compress those same processes into something more portable: the work-from-home studio/3D printer/CNC. Virtual work-arounds become work-inherent. Desks are cluttered. Forms emerge.

Still others of us have capitalized on found time in the midst of quarantine, working on personal handcrafts as we commute between zoom lectures.

All in all, we’ve made some pretty cool stuff.

Featured here is some of that stuff — objects created for various courses within the department, and as personal projects.
