Called: “A Matter of Perspective,” the joint faculty course between Computer Science and Architecture led to projects that included a printed object that casts a shadow in various shapes when rotated; 3D “eclairs” dominated by a pattern of laser-cut parameters based on oxidation shape; a printed object that contains three different images, which reveal themselves depending on the direction from which you look at them; and 3D-printed lenses with transparency and color transitions that create shapes projected on the wall.
THIS COURSE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE HOLISTIC IDEAS AND DESIGNS THAT GO MUCH FURTHER THAN WHAT EACH DISCIPLINE CAN CREATE INDIVIDUALLY.
The 2021 course was taught by Prof. Gershon Elber (Computer Science), Prof. Miri Ben-Chen (Computer Science), Asst. Prof. Yoav Sterman (Architecture) and Dr. Kacper Pluta (postdoc). In the long term, the course is seen as a stepping stone towards joint research and collaboration between the two faculties.
