Showing some of the projects and experiments from the Subtraction class.

Over the past semester our class has produced a ton of work through skill builders and larger projects exploring the capabilities of ITPs coolest subtraction tools. We'll show our work alongside the tools used to make them (within size constraints of course).
Subtraction
A light installation that shows the changes in nature.

Sea and Mulberry field is a Chinese idiom that literally means the sea changes into mulberry fields. This idiom is used by Chinese speakers to describe the inexorable change in world events.
This would be a light installation that tells the changes in nature using the silhouette of the shapes, and using stepper motors as to show the flying of time.
Now this project is still in process, and would be done by spring show, pictures can be seen in the link, and the video is the fabrication part.
Light and Interactivity, Subtraction
