Digital sculpting, also known as sculpt modeling or 3-D sculpting, is the use of software that offers tools to push, pull, smooth, grab, pinch, or otherwise manipulate a digital object as if it were made of a real-life substance such as clay. This workshop focuses on the use of digital tools in the process of producing physical sculpture. Using software such as Rhino 3-D, combined with digital hardware such as laser cutters, 3-D printers, digital CNC cutters/carvers, and a CNC plasma cutter, students design, cut, carve, and assemble a variety of different sculptures from a variety of different materials such as wood, plastic, paper, metal, and found materials. Come with a project in mind!
