「キネシス」は粉末焼結法（SLS：Selective Laser. Sintering）を使った3Dプリントの技術を駆使し、建築、ジュエリー、ファッションの概念を超えて融合したカスタムメイドのコレクション。モデルの身体を３Dスキャンし、抽出された多数のパスをもとに一つのデジタルデータを連続させることによって形成されたウェアラブルスカルプチャー。新作「Black Little Spain」は背骨や背筋周辺の骨や筋肉などの部位をモチーフにデザインを起こしたもの。データをロンドンから東京に送信し、日本製の３Dプリンターで制作した。
‘Kinesis’ is a collection of laser-sintered, custom-made objects merging notions of architecture, jewellery, and fashion design. The intricate pieces were conceived and materialized in one seamless digital process. The 3D geometries were generated by tracing multiple paths around a fashion model's body scan. The emerging path network was then materialised via selective laser sintering (SLS), a method that creates objects by merging nylon particles with a laser, building objects layer by layer. The resulting prototypes were first presented at a catwalk show during the 2012 World Conference on Additive Manufacturing & 3D Printing, hosted by .MGX and Materialise.Kinesis has also been displayed at Design Forum Vienna, London 3D Print Show and the Center for Contemporary Art Torun.
Architect and Designer
英国建築協会付属建築学校（通称 AA スクール）を卒業後、建築家ザハ・ハディドに師事、早くから3Dモデリング技術を建築へ応用する。2009年に独立後、デジタルや 3Dプリントを得意としながら様々なジャンルとのコラボレーションを行う。ファッションデザイナーIris van Herpenとのプロジェクトは、米国 TIME誌“The 50 best Inventions of The Year“に選ばれた。
After graduating from England’s AA School, Daniel worked closely with architect Zaha Hadid. Since going independent in 2009, he has worked in wide range of genres, and his studio is considered to be in the vanguard of digital art and design. His project with fashion designer Iris Van Herpen was chosen as one of Time Magazine’s 50 Best Innovations of the Year.
