I explored printing parameters and toolpath delays with Group1 to develop dotted surfaces across different geometries.

Parameters become material patterns.
I explored layer height, density, speed and pattern settings through printed samples with Group1. The surfaces reveal how those choices change bead spacing and texture.
We then carried the dotted surface language from small samples into curved and twisted geometries.

Recorded low-speed dot-path sample positions from Group 1. This point study describes the path rather than a finished solid.

Read the path through the deposited beads.
I worked on robotic paths and deposition delays with Group1. The original plate compares three path strategies alongside printed rings and close views of the deposited beads: read each row from movement diagram to material pattern.
The point model shows recorded low-speed path sample positions, not a finished solid or a complete fabrication sequence. The separate form study pairs printed shapes with line models to explore the strategy across different geometries.
Different deposition paths and time-delay strategies produce different bead patterns.

Watch the pattern being deposited.
The original fabrication recording shows a nozzle depositing material along the specimen edge. It makes the relationship between movement, extrusion and the dotted pattern visible in a physical trial.
This recording, the sampled point path and the comparison plates are different kinds of evidence from our printing study; they are not presented as one continuous recorded operation.
