The kit comes with seven different textures, including grass, brick, concrete, leather, and various embroideries. Similar to the process of rendering an architecture scene, the user selects the desired texture map from the "library" and apply to the "object." The texture can be customized by printing images at the user's convenience (12.5" by 15"). So why buy seven different totes when you have one that does it all? <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f4c183c2acebfce3267be13c2e4971e41accd2a3d4f88750fa5c488c5a7711ed/IMG_0042.JPG" data-mid="220226796" border="0" alt="1/4" data-caption="1/4" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f4c183c2acebfce3267be13c2e4971e41accd2a3d4f88750fa5c488c5a7711ed/IMG_0042.JPG" /> <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a2bd69045d0b2ed715c3d87efb7b0009e5ce0d9ba568ff20c0c2d162d888e027/IMG_0043.JPG" data-mid="220226797" border="0" alt="2/4" data-caption="2/4" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a2bd69045d0b2ed715c3d87efb7b0009e5ce0d9ba568ff20c0c2d162d888e027/IMG_0043.JPG" /> <img width="4000" height="5344" width_o="4000" height_o="5344" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1e7757249a8d56c9ad63d6743c7677032912d9d92c55f5c5046525fb3028f58a/IMG_0044.JPG" data-mid="220226798" border="0" alt="3/4" data-caption="3/4" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1e7757249a8d56c9ad63d6743c7677032912d9d92c55f5c5046525fb3028f58a/IMG_0044.JPG" /> <img width="4000" height="5252" width_o="4000" height_o="5252" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/83514856f19684b73dfcd706a4fc7a03b54071ada3477a32726fbcfe969bccef/IMG_0046.JPG" data-mid="220226799" border="0" alt="4/4" data-caption="4/4" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/83514856f19684b73dfcd706a4fc7a03b54071ada3477a32726fbcfe969bccef/IMG_0046.JPG" /> https://currentobjects.com/Slightbox Tue, 09 Apr 2024 01:44:39 +0000 Current Objects https://currentobjects.com/Slightbox SLIGHTBOX STUDIO: Evan Chakroff MATERIAL: Aluminum, slide filmQUALITIES: Recycled, Interactive, Shiny DESCRIPTION︎︎︎ Slightbox is a backlit display frame for a single 35mm film slide.

One part status symbol, one part marketing device, and one part handy bag, people collect and distribute totes similarly to how we used to distribute business cards. This has resulted in the Tote Tote, a bag full of bags many of us have stashed in our closets as different brands and images fall out of rotation, or when we encounter a freebie we don't need but just can't say no. Now we can have a new kind of tote tote: a tote that is a combination or reconstitution of other totes. This Tote Tote slows down the production of the tote, recycling the discards into a tote that only promotes its own tote-ness. <img width="2400" height="3000" width_o="2400" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2c8953389e6fa5bf186a3f88462d7bf9bc246091a8c7de67d3381906eea7661e/IMG_2156_edit.jpg" data-mid="208547770" border="0" alt="1/5" data-caption="1/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2c8953389e6fa5bf186a3f88462d7bf9bc246091a8c7de67d3381906eea7661e/IMG_2156_edit.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3000" width_o="2400" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8808c89f40c60b1f8606d593b089aa5c3f0300ebbe2d13b18807001675a6bef2/IMG_2159_edit.jpg" data-mid="208547771" border="0" alt="2/5" data-caption="2/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8808c89f40c60b1f8606d593b089aa5c3f0300ebbe2d13b18807001675a6bef2/IMG_2159_edit.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3000" width_o="2400" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c53bad338b6d581022f825cf5ec79ac8765c329fd02b59d95c6a50eaf4a470b3/IMG_2142_edit.jpg" data-mid="208547768" border="0" alt="3/5" data-caption="3/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c53bad338b6d581022f825cf5ec79ac8765c329fd02b59d95c6a50eaf4a470b3/IMG_2142_edit.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3000" width_o="2400" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6d4be969a16ee7dc40f858665317d3f5334aab272b4300dc0b11f0014fea6e6b/IMG_2150_edit.jpg" data-mid="208547769" border="0" alt="4/5" data-caption="4/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6d4be969a16ee7dc40f858665317d3f5334aab272b4300dc0b11f0014fea6e6b/IMG_2150_edit.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3000" width_o="2400" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/570ddd5cb1c7f7a0920b36c8dfd4d049fbf12f123e05784901045cf5ab88fa46/IMG_2170_edit.jpg" data-mid="208547772" border="0" alt="5/5" data-caption="5/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/570ddd5cb1c7f7a0920b36c8dfd4d049fbf12f123e05784901045cf5ab88fa46/IMG_2170_edit.jpg" /> https://currentobjects.com/Sea-Level-Rise-Scarf Wed, 29 Nov 2023 00:04:02 +0000 Current Objects https://currentobjects.com/Sea-Level-Rise-Scarf SEA LEVEL RISE SCARF STUDIO: Donna Mena, ohnodonna MATERIAL: SilkQUALITIES: Textile DESCRIPTION︎︎︎ 21” x 21” silk SCARF-SCARF is a limited-run scarf and bandana project exploring the relationship of garmentry and visual communication. The scarf, as seen through the lens of a statement piece made to capture an individual's attention, holds a vast amount of power in the contents that it chooses to display on its fabric. Inspired by the garment's capacity to entice and inform, SCARF-SCARF uses illustrations to education the public on topics that fall under the intersections of architecture and urbanism. Over the last year, SCARF-SCARF has produced 10 scarves focused on architectural themes. This newest scarf, "SF Sea Level Rise", the first of a new series focused on the environmental and climate issues facing our world today. The illustration summarizes a lengthy and link-heavy assessment produced by SFPlanning showcasing SF's vulnerability zone as effected by SRL. The article is informative and a good reference for the public's knowledge but, it's not something that's widely known unless you do a Google search, "sea level rise SF map" like I did. If we make important information more accessible to the public in a way thats off kilter, will they be more enticed to research on their own? How can we make information more accessible irl? <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c30bfbb129e0c3af106a7a7941e270e3952f64b64dd8ca0b1c1b8cf002832dc7/scarf-soup.png" data-mid="198093289" border="0" alt="1/5" data-caption="1/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c30bfbb129e0c3af106a7a7941e270e3952f64b64dd8ca0b1c1b8cf002832dc7/scarf-soup.png" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7bd03424f772cdc0b5d1f000de14887c19badd4581182801d784016d28e24e0d/scarf-scrunch-soup.png" data-mid="198093288" border="0" alt="2/5" data-caption="2/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7bd03424f772cdc0b5d1f000de14887c19badd4581182801d784016d28e24e0d/scarf-scrunch-soup.png" /> <img width="1536" height="2048" width_o="1536" height_o="2048" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d40088a22fe56a9c8dc59e288ff3d62e4f81ad506e6d75ceb8c172d6b08b126f/IMG_2980.JPEG" data-mid="198093300" border="0" alt="3/5" data-caption="3/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d40088a22fe56a9c8dc59e288ff3d62e4f81ad506e6d75ceb8c172d6b08b126f/IMG_2980.JPEG" /> <img width="1536" height="2048" width_o="1536" height_o="2048" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0367a8aa908d9d7e30067ca8a4ecfecc17fc0678a5d7d77a67a746644c9387a4/IMG_3027.JPEG" data-mid="198093302" border="0" alt="4/5" data-caption="4/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0367a8aa908d9d7e30067ca8a4ecfecc17fc0678a5d7d77a67a746644c9387a4/IMG_3027.JPEG" /> <img width="1536" height="2048" width_o="1536" height_o="2048" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e0f605f32edfc8600287da85cfc10f40131c3a0324238dca0fba0cc562d5f25b/IMG_3002.jpeg" data-mid="198093301" border="0" alt="5/5" data-caption="5/5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e0f605f32edfc8600287da85cfc10f40131c3a0324238dca0fba0cc562d5f25b/IMG_3002.jpeg" /> https://currentobjects.com/Bowls Wed, 29 Nov 2023 00:40:42 +0000 Current Objects https://currentobjects.com/Bowls NESTING CROCHETED BOWLS STUDIO: Mariah Smith MATERIAL: Cotton, Poly-Cotton Blend QUALITIES: Textile DESCRIPTION︎︎︎ 7” x 7” x 3.5” The nesting crocheted bowls are constructed using remnants of previous Current Objects - the 2022 and 2023 moon calendar bandanas and an OSB-printed shower curtain that had an unfortunate run-in with a candle at a pop-up.&nbsp;

Fired to Cone 6 in an electric kiln, these represent our collaboration that brings cutting-edge technology together with sustainable ceramic practices. Each piece is entirely functional and food safe. This work is a result of a six-year partnership between the ISU Ceramics Studio and ISU Computation &amp; Construction Lab. Both are housed in the Iowa State University College of Design. One of the most comprehensive design colleges in the country, it is home to seven departments, fostering opportunities for unique multidisciplinary collaborations. The ISU Computation &amp; Construction is an initiative of the Department of Architecture and is home to $1 million in digital fabrication and robotics equipment that support cutting edge teaching and research. The ISU Ceramics studio is housed in the Department of Art and Visual Culture with a focus on sustainable practices in ceramics. The collaboration began with the development of SEKI, a collection of eighty unique vases designed for President Wendy Wintersteen’s installation in 2018. Each vase represents the integration of custom-made glazes with computational designs and clay 3D printing. An important innovation of this project was the use of Cone 6 electric kiln glazes that rely upon Iowa’s wind energy rather than gas. The palette of glaze colors was inspired by the University Museums’ Iowa College Pottery collection, thereby connecting advances in ceramic technology to its history at Iowa State. In 2021 ISU College of Design became part of a team exploring 3D printing rural affordable housing. The cups and pitchers sold here are the result of imagining 3D printed dinnerware for a 3D printed house. The techniques demonstrated here were developed during YanJiu Bai’s Master of Science thesis Designing Access to Clay 3D Printing for Ceramic&nbsp;Artists. All proceeds from the sale of the cups and pitchers will be donated to the ISU Ceramics Studio to support future collaborations and student work. &nbsp; <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/27683a03be4ac5ff71292194d3380ec79cc862d74e74e435b9855ea3272760fb/PITCHER_8.jpg" data-mid="184999281" border="0" alt="1/9" data-caption="1/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/27683a03be4ac5ff71292194d3380ec79cc862d74e74e435b9855ea3272760fb/PITCHER_8.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/33f3a97c0dbfe87794f4080dbc1278d8cdee24ace34944d7c1f02c7f9babffa8/PITCHER_0.jpg" data-mid="184998435" border="0" alt="2/9" data-caption="2/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/33f3a97c0dbfe87794f4080dbc1278d8cdee24ace34944d7c1f02c7f9babffa8/PITCHER_0.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e0d784af59423b6fd11daaad0c991992e5ef9627173b82921aa20e429ee28b0f/PITCHER_2.jpg" data-mid="184998802" border="0" alt="3/9" data-caption="3/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e0d784af59423b6fd11daaad0c991992e5ef9627173b82921aa20e429ee28b0f/PITCHER_2.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c48f74c7b66370ed4256274cb346e038fb441c09a218a1721a448c6e5e1e29a2/PITCHER_7.jpg" data-mid="184999279" border="0" alt="4/9" data-caption="4/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c48f74c7b66370ed4256274cb346e038fb441c09a218a1721a448c6e5e1e29a2/PITCHER_7.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bdb5580233d668983a6997d01a1622b2b11c3e28b9eb1409b5876084f9d939b1/PITCHER_6.jpg" data-mid="184999278" border="0" alt="5/9" data-caption="5/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bdb5580233d668983a6997d01a1622b2b11c3e28b9eb1409b5876084f9d939b1/PITCHER_6.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7c7fca0fbb30462aaf26ad92bab9d539e4740ef567618973613ce899225f2d5e/PITCHER_5.jpg" data-mid="184999277" border="0" alt="6/9" data-caption="6/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7c7fca0fbb30462aaf26ad92bab9d539e4740ef567618973613ce899225f2d5e/PITCHER_5.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fcfcb230643b4e64c4e09ad79e9e35ee688b8e897a4e47b08b2da7c56a15bab0/PITCHER_4.jpg" data-mid="184999275" border="0" alt="7/9" data-caption="7/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fcfcb230643b4e64c4e09ad79e9e35ee688b8e897a4e47b08b2da7c56a15bab0/PITCHER_4.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b9c07098d61deed59f14e05b86b3b859f66faabab8011678c8f381cff91d0e7d/PITCHER_3.jpg" data-mid="184999271" border="0" alt="8/9" data-caption="8/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b9c07098d61deed59f14e05b86b3b859f66faabab8011678c8f381cff91d0e7d/PITCHER_3.jpg" /> <img width="2318" height="2897" width_o="2318" height_o="2897" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/81173fb7beeb9cf0b0228f43a9e7761005b82bc4aa4db180224c18291627b387/PITCHER_1.jpg" data-mid="184998801" border="0" alt="9/9" data-caption="9/9" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/81173fb7beeb9cf0b0228f43a9e7761005b82bc4aa4db180224c18291627b387/PITCHER_1.jpg" /> https://currentobjects.com/Chandelle Mon, 12 Jun 2023 20:25:27 +0000 Current Objects https://currentobjects.com/Chandelle CHANDELLE STUDIO: Labo-d’ MATERIAL: CeramicQUALITIES: Shiny, Aggregated DESCRIPTION︎︎︎ 5”h x 4.5” x 3.5” Chandelle is a ceramic work made of glazed Buffalo wallow clay consisting of a balancing candle-holding cylinder and a truncated conical volume.
