<abstract><p>The combination of computer graphics, geometry, and rapid
|
||||
prototyping technology has created a wide range of exciting
|
||||
opportunities for using the computer as a medium for creative
|
||||
expression. In this talk, I will describe the most popular
|
||||
technologies for computer-aided manufacturing, discuss
|
||||
applications of these devices in art and design, and survey
|
||||
the work of contemporary artists working in the area (with a
|
||||
focus on mathematical art). The talk will be primarily
|
||||
non-technical, but I will mention some of the mathematical
|
||||
and computational techniques that come into play.
