By Gerardo, Peter, and Olivia Abstract Our project aim was to transform Genevieve’s artwork into rasterized graphics to etch acrylic sheets and combine them into layered sculptural images. Instead of trying to incorporate the robotic arm in order to increase scale it was more important to Genevieve that we capture her method of layering paint

by Gerardo, Olivia, and Peter After further consideration between our group and our artist we have changed trajectory towards transforming Genevieve’s art into a 3D layered image made of layers of transparent acrylic. After our initial proposal we spoke more with Genevieve, Garth, and Josh and realized we had been focusing on the wrong things.

by Gerardo, Olivia, and Peter We’re interested in utilizing the motion capture technology in the dFab Lab to explore the expressive nature of Genevieve’s drawing skills and to, ultimately, use the motion capture data to scale up her artwork. Genevieve prefers to work on a smaller scale. The end result is a process that generates

Perry Naseck & Olivia Seavy We examined the motion of a file used on the edge of a block of wood. To record movement, we attached motion capture points to the file-end of the tool in a triangular pattern. Using the motion capture software Motive, we tracked our motion capture points in digital space. In
