About Unvisible Landscapes Itara

Unvisible Landscapes ni urukurikirane rw'amatara rushingiye ku bishushanyo bya fractal bifite ingano eshatu (three dimensional fractals). Imiterere yayo yibutsa ibyiciro by'imijyi kandi ikorwa binyuze muri porogaramu y'ubushushanyi bwa fractal. Amakarita y'imihindukire (displacement maps) ashyirwa ku buso bw'ibishushanyo binyuze muri porogaramu y'ubushushanyi bufite ingano eshatu, hanyuma imiterere ivuyemo igacapwa hakoreshejwe umugozi wa filament ya PLA. Buri gicapo gishyirwaho amashanyarazi ya LED (LED strips) hamwe n'ibikoresho bitanga amashanyarazi, bigatuma fractal igaragazwa mu buryo bw'urumuri. Uru rukurikirane rutuma imiterere ya mudasobwa n'imibare (mathematical structures) igaragara mu mwanya nyakuri, kikanabishyira mu murima w'ubuhanzi n'ubushushanyi.

The Recognition

About the Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Buronze

Unvisible Landscapes Itara ni uwegukanye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Buronze, ishimwe ry'agaciro gakomeye ritangwa ku bishushanyo by'indashyikirwa birangwa no guhanga, ubwenge n'ubushishozi. Abegukanye Buronze ni ibihangano bifite ubuhanga bwinshi kandi bihanga cyane, bishimangira uburambe, ubwenge n'ubushobozi bw'ababihanze. Unvisible Landscapes Itara biteganyijwe ko izaba ikintu cyubahwa, gishimwa kandi gikundwa, gifite ubunyamwuga n'udushya. Iki gishushanyo cyegukanye Buronze gikoresha uburyo bwiza mu buhanzi, ubumenyi, ubushushanyo n'ikoranabuhanga kandi kirarenze mu gutaha ku tuntu duto. Unvisible Landscapes Itara ishimisha ibyo dukeneye, ikora ku byifuzo byacu, itwara amarangamutima yacu kandi ikurura amatsiko yacu.

Unique Properties
3 dimensional fractals that bring associations with urban landscapes generated in fractal generation software and then transposed to physical space by 3d printing and presented in the form of light.

fractal, fractals, 3d print, 3d printing, light
Production Technology
Fractal generation through Mandelbulb 3d software. 3d processing was made by applying displacement maps to surfaces in 3d modeling software. Physical objects were printed on a 3d printer with te use of PLA filament and then equipped with LED strips for lighting.
Design Challenge
This design is a part of the project 'Unvisible Spaces' with the aim to visualize and sonify 'unvisible' phenomena that take place in nature and introduce them to the field of art and design.
Research
Fractals generated by mutation of formulas and navigation in Mandelbulb 3d software. Then rendered and transposed into video, digital prints and 3d prints.
Inspiration
Objective mathematical notions must be thought as timeless entities and are not to be regarded as being conjured into existence at the moment that they are first humanly perceived.

Roger Penrose, The Road to Reality. A complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe.

Eternal beauty (...) nor this beauty will appear like the beauty of a face or hands or anything corporeal, or like a thought or knowledge, or existing in any other being, but a beauty itself constant and eternal.

Plato, The Symposium
Project Duration
The project starded in 2019, and was exhibited in Pavilion 02 in Venice in May 2019
Operation Flow
A light with a power supply
