A course offered
at the University of Tennessee's College of Architecture and
Design uses a Techno LC Series Router to help "explore
how Digital Manufacturing techniques reveal beauty, structure and
technique latent within topographical surface modeling." Course
instructor, Andrew Thurlow has setup a
Project Web site
that gives great detail to this fascinating study. View some of the
pictures below or visit Professor Thurlow's Web site at:

"The Digital
Manufacturing (DM) course sponsors research that explores how the
change from standardized industrial processes to digitally-based
fabrication methods promotes new ornament in architecture, one that
integrates structure, program and beauty. These design
investigations examine the possibilities of surface modulation
through digital manufacturing, a process that exploits the
reciprocal effects between digital information and material
production."
