Description/Abstract:

Layered Manufacturing, the underlying technology of 3D printing, has made rapid strides over the last 30 years. We discuss layered manufacturing from the artist’s perspective, especially for intricate ceramic pottery. We contend that opportunities exist for applying visualization to the foremost problems plaguing layered manufacturing. Virtual pottery involves meeting two conflicting constraints: rapid visualization during modeling and accurate rapid prototyping during manufacturing. Artists simultaneously need both low polygon shape representation for interactive visualization and adequate representation for generating accurate printable models. Artists also face the additional complexities of adding surface details that cannot be achieved by hand and handling materials like clay used in the manufacturing of real pottery. Illustrated by a system we have developed that uses sound resonance patterns to create volumetric textures for virtual pottery, we show how visualization helps address both these problem areas.
