STUDIO THEME

Attentive Tools



DMT Practicum serves as an intensive launch into the Digital and Material Technologies program with 3 major goals:

1. An intensive tooling-up: students acquire the skill sets to operate a suite of machines and softwares, and to recognize tool capacities and strategies.

2. The development of production logics: students critically discuss and develop tools, jigs, and methods of making to advance fabrication technique and material insight.

3. Conscious decision assessment: students carefully investigate, reveal, and respond to the results of design decisions ranging in topics from project longevity, multiple-use, material waste, energy use, and environmental and health impacts.
