For Apotropaia, Sungho Bae retrieves plush toys from waste sites, opens them up and rebuilds them around armatures with leather, clay, feathers and ritual objects. Waste comes back as an uneasy guardian.
Packing foam, fruit mesh and plastic become bonnets, collars and drapery. Suzanne Jongmans does not hide these materials: she sculpts them, then photographs them like old textiles.
Ninefold shreds discarded PLA, reprints it as large tuned forms and leaves its color and transparency variations visible. Recycled material becomes part of the acoustic behavior.
Dressmaker keeps fabric choice, patterns, cutting and assembly, then compresses the repetitive hours. It shows how to translate a craft without reproducing everything.
Replantio turns a polygon into a species shortlist using EcoCrop, ERA5, SoilGrids, WCVP and GBIF. Its value lies as much in its model as in the boundary it draws between screening and prescription.
Jordan Matelsky turns each point in a 3D scene into a reflective scratch. An old CD case, a sharp point and a light source create virtual depth.
OpenClimbing 2.0 separates the guide from the service displaying it: OpenStreetMap for shared terrain, Wikimedia Commons for images, then a specialist climbing interface on top.
Gigatron replaces the microprocessor with a handful of 7400-series logic chips. The CPU stays visible while somehow also generating video, sound and a second virtual processor.
No layers, no supports: OpenCAL projects images into a spinning vial of resin and the whole part appears in minutes. A volumetric printer you can build from a Raspberry Pi 5 and a projector.
A project for a child-sized humanoid triggered more than 150 AI review passes. The resulting repository is most interesting because it carefully documents what all that digital verification still fails to prove.
