CNC Relief of AI Imagery (2024)
CNC-machined foam insulation panel, spray paint. Exhibited at Disruption Now's 'Artistic Intelligence,' Over the Rhine, during BLINK.
AI-generated imagery translated into a CNC-machined foam relief.
Process: Image generated in Midjourney (prompts: human-computer integration) → height map created → applied as texture stencil in Blender → imported to Fusion 360 for CNC toolpath generation → G-code optimized with AI assistance (reduced machining time ~50%) → machined on Shapeoko CNC on foam insulation panel → finished with spray paint layers.
