About Unvisible Landscapes Taa

Mandhari Yasiyoonekana ni mfululizo wa taa zinazotokana na fractal za pande tatu. Maumbo yake yanakumbusha mandhari za mijini na yanatengenezwa kwa kutumia programu ya uundaji wa fractal. Ramani za uhamishaji (displacement maps) zinawekwa kwenye nyuso katika programu ya uundaji wa pande tatu, na maumbo yanayotokana yanachapishwa kwa kutumia nyuzi za PLA. Kila kitu kilichochapishwa kinawekwa vipande vya taa za LED pamoja na chanzo cha umeme, ili fractal ionekane katika mfumo wa mwanga. Mfululizo huu unafanya miundo ya kihisabati ionekane katika nafasi halisi na kuileta katika ulimwengu wa sanaa na muundo.

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.
Dimensions & Packaging
Model 1: Width 170 mm x Depth 120 mm x Height 26 mm
Model 2: Width 200 mm x Depth 150 mm x Height 16 mm

Tags
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
