Finally we decided to scan a half-mannequin to have a cleaner file. ISSUES: be sure to scan carefully the whole object! text/html 2017-10-23T13:08:36+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_3?rev=1508764116&do=diff PLACE : Onl'Fait Geneva DATE: 13/10 PEOPLE: Cristina, Sébastien SOFTWARE: I used paper and pencils to draw the tiles and see how they could be assembled ISSUES: in two cases I laser cut the pieces before deciding the final object to assemble. It stimulated my creativity but some cuts were actually not necessary text/html 2017-11-28T14:07:41+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_4?rev=1511878061&do=diff PLACE : Wemake, Milan DATE: 18/10 PEOPLE: Cristina, Giorgia, Luisa, Zoe MATERIAL: We chose to use hibiscus dried flowers and curcuma powder to produce violet and yellow dyes. We had a variety of natural animal (wool, silk) and vegetal (cotton) tissues to test. text/html 2017-10-30T16:21:19+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_5?rev=1509380479&do=diff PLACE : Onl'Fait, Geneva DATE: 28/10 PEOPLE: Cristina, Giorgia, Luisa PROCESS & MATERIAL: based on the scheme provided by Wemake Milano, we fabricated a piezoresistive analog sensor.

Grasshopper is an open source visual programming language that runs with Rhinoceros 3D. Grasshopper builds generative geometry by dragging components onto a canvas; data is passed from component to component via connections which connect an output with an input. Grasshoper has sevral plugs-in. text/html 2017-11-29T18:01:44+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_7?rev=1511978504&do=diff PLACE: Onl'Fait, Geneva DATE: 16/11 PEOPLE: Cristina PROCESS I prepared a simple circuit by sewing with conductive thread 4 blue LEDs on a small square of felt. I painted them carefully with transparent polish nail to protect them from corrosion due to the cristal bath. I then checked that the circuit was still working by connecting a coin battery. text/html 2017-11-29T17:53:40+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_8?rev=1511978020&do=diff PLACE: Onl'Fait, Geneva DATE: 18/11 PEOPLE: Cristina, Giorgia, Luisa, Sébastien STRUCTURE We decided to build a mini loom to weave a conductive tissue. The files were downloaded, modified and cut with the Fab Lab laser cutter. ISSUESI modified the files for the 4mm plywood that we had in stock but I left too much margin and I needed to glue the pieces to make a solid structure. text/html 2018-01-08T21:31:47+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/cristina.olivotto/week_9?rev=1515447107&do=diff PLACE: Onl'Fait, Geneva DATE: 07/01 PEOPLE: Cristina OBJECTIVE I built a fabric loud speaker.
