Course from MoMA and threeASFOUR to Explore 3D Printing in Fashion as Design / Video Professional Additive Manufacturing

Textiles are among the most ancient human design pieces. In this short film, New York-based fashion collective threeASFOUR reimagines fabric manipulation and textile design using 3D printing to create dresses that transform based on the ergonomics and movement of the human body. This and other aspects of fashion in technology and design will be examined during FASHION AS DESIGN, a new online course that explores a selection of garments from around the world—ranging from Kente cloth to jeans to 3D printed dresses.

Can MES Software Transform 3D Printing Into a True Production Technology? Additive Manufacturing

In the world of advanced manufacturing, the term MES to describe software based Manufacturing Execution Systems is already fairly common. However, it is only now beginning to be introduced to AM, leading us to coin a new “AMES” (Additive Manufacturing Execution Systems) acronym. This is occurring now because only recently did AM start to become a true batch and potentially even a mass manufacturing technology.
