My day was made today when John Adams and Ricki Dwyer said to me that their sculpture was created in the spirit of Sankofa an Akan word meaning "Go back and fetch it". It embodies the need to understand your past so that you are prepared to step into the future. Made my quarter.

Week 10: Work In Progress
A collaborative Sculpture by John Adams (Industrial Design) an Ricki Dwyer (Fibers). This work combines digital fabrication and basket weaving techniques.These photos depict the work in progress which will be complete for finals in two days. This is an excellent example of both the collaborative and high-tech high touch ethos of the sculpture minor program.

Alli Hall: From Binary to Bronze
Alli Hall continued her exploration of Digital Applications in Sculpture that she began during the summer of 2009. This fall she made a mold of her FDM model that was created during the summer quarter. Once completed, she created a wax positive that was sprued and gated for ceramic shell bronze castings. She had the pleasure of pouring the piece herself on October 23, at SCAD Atlanta. Here you can see her cutting away the sprues on her sculpture. Alli gets kudos for being the first SCAD student to cast bronze from an FDM model as a sculptural application.
