FA 276 Digital Fabrication

This course introduces students to the technology surrounding computer-aided-design/computer-aided-manufacturing (CAD/CAM) and its creative applications within art practices. The CAD/CAM process is particularly well-suited for certain tasks, including the creation of multiples, for fabrication of functional/kinetic components, iterative prototyping of complex structures, scalable design, construction of large structures from repeated simple components, and more.
