Sine Bowl

2012

Mathematical waves exist in everyday objects, from basket weaving, to chain fences, to textile patterns; essentially, they can be derived from manipulating the basic trigonometric formula:

[ sin(θ), cos(θ), z ]

Sine bowl was inspired by basket weaving. The process of weaving was abstracted to simple trigonometric equations in space that wrap around three dimensional surfaces. This results in a 3D printed vessel with a tactility that blurs the line between a handwoven textile and the digitally fabricated.
