matthew plummer-fernandez: glitch reality II tea set

'glitch reality II' teapot and milk jug by matthew plummer-fernandez


london-based designer matthew plummer-fernandez continues his exploration in 3D scanning and fabrication with 'glitch reality II'.
the pieces are created whereby plummer-fernandez purchases non-matching tea set components, capturing their forms using a
Z-corporation 3D scanner, roughly repairing the digital mesh files. once this process is completed, they are are 3D printed,
the resulting tea set expressing the inherent glitches derived from analogue-to-digital-to-analogue translation,
seen through the subtle facets of the pieces' surfaces.

the initial research and development support can be credited to david gardener with modeling done by marcin mazurski.
