The Design

About Unvisible Landscapes 燈具

《隱形景觀》係一系列以三維分形為基礎嘅燈具。呢啲造型令人聯想起城市景觀,係用分形建模軟件生成嘅。透過三維建模軟件喺表面上應用置換貼圖,再將所得嘅形狀用PLA線材列印出嚟。每件列印出嚟嘅物件都裝上LED燈條同電源供應器,令分形以光嘅形式呈現出嚟。呢個系列將數學結構喺實體空間中呈現出嚟,並將佢哋帶入藝術同設計嘅領域。

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
