The Ohio State University: From Ceramics Monthly’s MFA Factor
Established in 1926, The Ohio State University Ceramics program is one of the oldest in the country. The educational philosophy of the program, which operates inside the larger graduate program in The OSU Department of Art, encourages students to bridge the boundaries of both concept and material. The program promotes a cross fertilization of media and methods and places a high value on intellectual research.October 21, 2009
Combining Histories: Make, Scan, Mill, Print, Adjust, Repeat
For the past few years we have utilized several forms of rapid prototyping to explore new methods of creating form. At The Ohio State University ceramics program, we have a large Techno Isel CNC (computer numerically controlled) router and a Konica Minolta Vivid 910 3D scanner, a Z-Corp 510 3D printer and a soon-to-be-operational Epilog laser cutter. In an environment where research and development are crucial activities, we willingly embrace these new technologies in search of a balance between traditional craft and industrial practice.
