MOR4R: Microwave Oven Recipes for Resins
This research presents a technique to make an acrylic (PMMA) 3D craft using a microwave oven. By pasting a properly sized susceptor sheet to the PMMA and microwaving it for about two minutes, the creator can bend and cut the PMMA sheet with hands and scissors.

Mirror Mirror: An On-Body Clothing Design System
An interactive personal clothing-design system. Virtual designs are projected on the user’s body and observed in a mirror’s reflection as if the clothes are really “worn". Final designs are exported for fabrication of real garments.

Terabit Break it Down, Blow it Up, Make it Yours
In a laboratory-style work area, this installation uses microscope lenses, robotic photography systems, and computational photography techniques to create amazing high-resolution textures with depth data. This type of imaging can serve as a valuable resource for CG artists, animators, and designers who need access to both abstract and highly photorealistic content of microscopic structures. Attendees are invited to create new textures or utilize existing textures already created.

Hyve-3D and Rethinking the 3D Cursor: Unfolding a Natural Interaction Model for Remote and Local Co-Design in VR
This installation presents a new environment to actively create 3D content inside virtual worlds by collaborative (local and remote) 3D sketching. In a concave-spherical immersive environment, attendees explore a novel natural interaction using planes that are intuitively manipulated in space by handheld tablets tracked in six degrees of freedom.
