Taking The Web Off The Screen
summary
Demos show concrete claims and working pipelines: CSS-only generative patterns rendered as 100-square grids then printed and mounted; use of canvas2svg to convert canvas to vector for plotters and lasers; hands-on machines include a pen-plotter (AxiDraw, ~£550), laser cutter (professional beds ~£60k), and a Formlabs Form 2 SLA printer feeding STL exports from ThreeJS into lost-wax casting to make silver Hexatope jewellery — Kickstarter-backed and in small production, with iterative material testing (three kilns, repeated prints).
