We then printed it in various supports: PLA plastic with our Makerbot Z18, 3D paper printing with our Iris MCOR machine, and 3D CNCed stone with our industrial partner Maillard & Maillard. To do this, we’ve had to combine the use of a modelling software called Zbrush (Pixologic) to rework the damaged parts of the bust, such as filling in the piece with new volume, resculpt the details, and insert captured textures back onto the model. We made use of this software to restore the ancient bronze bust mentioned, and aiming to the closest of its former glory. A 3D model is built on the autodesk cloud server from our pictures, along with its high-resolution texture, and delivered back to our computers as obj. Making use of Autodesk's Memento (a free photogrametric software) enables us to digitally capture/scan objects with our own camera.
Tutorial by Eric Lemaresquier (le FabClub Paris) First to show that where is there is will to destroy, there is simultaneous and equal will to rebuild, and in the hope that such a project could serve as a stark example of technological progress and as an optimistic reminder. We took it upon ourselves to create a positive outcome from the negative. Our response to this was to establish a positive stance on the unfolding events, with the help of combined modern technology.
Namely, we precisely recalled events of all that historical hertiage destruction by Islamic fundamentalists in Irak and the middle-east at the time, and how it had everyone very much fired up around the table. We admired it for a while and began contemplating on a few things about it. When out for lunch together with my colleagues in the Thai restaurant accross the street, we stumbled upon this very old-looking bronze bust (above).
