Tradigital Wire-Bending Workshop @ CMU

On February 2-3, I led a workshop titled, “Tradigital Wire-Bending: Conversations Between Craft Practices and Machines” at CMU’s School of Architecture. Participants learned about, designed, and built large-scale sculptures by employing different approaches to the craft of wire-bending specific to the Trinidad and Tobago Carnival. I taught traditional techniques in wire-bending, computational, and digital methods of reconfiguration.
