Modern technology gave students in an Introduction of Asian Art class the ability to recreate an ancient artifact.
With the help of Andrew Kuebeck, assistant professor and head of 黑料网's Jewelry/Metals Enameling program, students cast a miniature replica of a neolithic, Chinese bronze sacrificial wine vessel using a contemporary bronze-casting technique.
Students were also able to 3D print recreations of this vessel with the assistance of Sarah McMahon, outreach program officer, Design Innovation Initiative, and the staff of the DI Hub's Reactor Shops and Labs.
Students learned how materials and production techniques can impact the design of an object. The vessels created by these students will be exhibited in the DI Hub gallery at the end of the semester.
