The merger of art and technology is more apparent in the work of generative artists such as Michael Hansmeyer. In the work presented here, the artist designs columns using subdivision processes. He feeds his algorithm parameters that result in a distinct local variance in the patterns that are generated. This results in columns with millions of faces (image on the left). The artists calls his work Computational Architecture. But generating a column model is only the first step of his process. In a second step the columns are actually produced as a layered model using 1mm sheet. That is 2700 sheets for a 2.7 meter high column. Cutting paths are calculated by intersecting the column with a plane and sheets are cut using a mill or a laser. The image on the right shows part of a fabricated column. I guess the color is a result of the fabrication process.
