Looking Outwards 03 Hannah Wyatt

CMU Architecture student Madeline Gannon’s project Reverberating Across the Divide unites techniques in computer vision, digital fabrication, and digital design in order to create exotic custom apparel. I admire the intricate geometric symmetry of the necklace, translated from real-time hand gestures through kinetic-based body scanning technology.

High fashion often encourages breaking stylistic barriers set by previous generations in order to create experimentalist clothing lines- which shares similarities in Gannon’s approach to the industry.

. I most admire the individuality of the piece, and the unique way the geometry conforms to the model’s body. The algorithm behind the work includes a chronomorphologic modeling technique, allowing for rapid prototypes and composite movement recording.
