TECHNOLOGY

o   Josef Dunne is the founder of Champion 3D, a 3D printing service based in Peckham Levels. It began as one second-hand printer in a ‘bedroom’ studio and has now grown to over 16 3D printers and has completed over 2,000 orders.

o   Sam Gueterbock is a co-founder of Sculpted Design, which specialises in 3D printing and design using 100% recycled plastic waste, ranging from plastic bottles to old car dashboards. Sculpted design build gigantic 1 m3 3D printers and will be exhibiting one live at the exhibition.

o   Ollie Hanton is a PhD student studying at the University of Bristol. He works in the department of computer science, within Human Computer Interaction. He is currently working on the creation of electronics through spraying and 3D printing. 

FASHION

o   Rob Elford is a London based artist and designer using 3D digital technologies in jewellery. He works with a range of printed materials including ceramics, polymers and resin, bringing together digitally printed synthetics with natural hand craft finishes, including the use of precious materials silver and strung pearls.

o   Lingxiao Luo is a fashion designer whose MA project at RCA, ‘AddiToy’, combines 3D printing and knitwear together. The 3D print attaches onto the knit directly without any sewing or gluing and becomes a part of the textile naturally, offering more shape and form to the knit whilst making the print more wearable.

o   Nange Magro is the fashion designer of Dead Lotus Couture, creating elegant and edgy designs using latex. Emotions and sensuality are fundamental elements for Nange as much as merging the past with sci-fi, exploring and pushing the limit between unreality and contemporary. Nange will exhibit Metrika, the world’s first 3D printed and latex dress.

ART & PHOTOGRAPHY

o   Dr. Katy Connor is a visual artist, drawn towards the ambiguous relationship between body and machine. Her current research explores bio-media: the poetic threshold between the human and its synthetic engineered replicant. Katy has undertaken artist residencies in engineering labs and remote places, including the High Arctic.

ARCHITECTURE

o   Alexandru Anghelina is the Head of Design at Essence 3D Print, a start-up company specialised in designing and 3D printing architectural models, engineering prototypes as well as bespoke artwork.

SCIENCE & MEDICINE

o   Jen Botezat studied neuroimaging at King’s College London where she was particularly excited to use electroencephalography (EEG) to decipher human brain waves. Her studies of the human brain led to the creation of a human head model, that was manufactured using 3D printing. 

o   Dani Clode is the creator of the Third Thumb, a 3D printed thumb extension for your hand, controlled by your feet. The project investigates the relationship between the body and prosthetic technology in new ways.

o   Iona Scott, the founder of Planktonworld, develops immersive adventures into the microscopic submarine world of plankton using Visual Art and VR. The aim of her work is to inspire a reconnection to nature and in particular to raise awareness of the importance of microscopic plants in the sea.
