DECODING CRAFTSMANSHIP II

Joseph Walsh is an internationally renowned designer maker, whose work reflectsan understanding and sympathetic use of material, an intimate relationship between finding forms and creating structures and a continuity and resolve from concept to making. Based in Co Cork, Ireland, his studioemploys a skilled team who achieve his ambitious pieces. From both culturally and academically diverse backgrounds such as the Furniture College Letterfrack (Ireland), the Shinrin Takumi Juku (Japan) and Les Compagnons du Devoir (France), the team continuously challenge existing practice to realise his challenging concepts in an innovative environment. Joseph Walsh Studio has now established itself as one of the leading studio workshops in Europe.

Advances in CAD/CAM technology has democratised production and allowed designers to create increasingly complex forms at an exponentially accelerated rate. But it has also resulted in a physical rift between the maker and the made object. Decoding Craftsmanship II continues a series of conversations that Joseph Walsh Studio began early in 2017 exploring how emerging technologies can enable a new form of maker culture. The second event in the workshop series (to be followed by a one-day seminar), will consist of a:
 TWO-DAY RHINO WORKSHOP ON 21-22 SEPTEMBER 2017
This two-day intermediate level Rhino workshop, exclusively developed by Simply Rhino Limited UK for Decoding Craftsmanship II, is geared toward design and engineering professionals of all disciplines who have a basic understanding of Rhino but wish to improve their overall knowledge and become more confident and productive.
INTRODUCTION
The course contains intermediate level material and begins with explaining NURBS topology in more detail before moving on to practical examples demonstrating efficient modeling techniques, modelling strategy and avoiding common modelling problems. This course is the ideal step-up for professionals working in the following industries:
<UL>
<LI>Product Design</LI>
<LI>Furniture Design</LI>
<LI>Jewellery Design</LI>
<LI>Artists and Sculptors</LI>
<LI>Film and TV</LI>
<LI>POS and Structural Packaging</LI>
<LI>Automotive Industries</LI>
<LI>Architecture and Engineering</LI>
<LI>Interior Design</LI>
</UL>
STRUCTURE
This fast moving two day class starts with a refresher on Rhino basics before moving on to an understanding of NURBS topology. This understanding is then applied to a number of exercises detailing the creation of clean, optimised geometry and controlled freeform shapes. Modelling strategy is covered and examples of where each surface type in Rhino is best suited is demonstrated. Strategies to manage large models are examined along with tips for exporting and importing data. The creation of 2D drawing information is also explained along with a special section on creating STL files for rapid prototypes and 3D printing. Various presentation and processes are also covered.
PREREQUISITES
Trainees should already be using Rhino and have a good basic understanding of the Rhino interface and command structure.
