The Erasmus BIP workshop “Navigating Through the Complexities of the Digital Jungle” will be held on 25–29 August 2025, organized by the Department of Ceramics of the Estonian Academy of Arts.
19 students from five partner schools will participate: Aalto University, Vilnius Academy of Arts, Latvian Academy of Arts, Saarland University of the Arts and Estonian Academy of Arts.
The course will be supervised by Dries Verbruggen (Belgium), Lauri Kilusk, Kaiko Kivi and Martin Melioranski.
The workshop will focus on the application of 3D design and printing in design. Students will be tasked with identifying spatial conditions in the human living environment where biological diversity and coexistence are limited. They will then use 3D design to create site-specific interventions aimed at increasing species diversity and/or the circulation of energy and matter, while trying to respect the architecture and other specificities of the place.
The workshop will include lectures, presentations, discussions and practical activities. Technical sessions will cover various slicing software and parametric modeling techniques, placing the practice of 3D printing within a broader theoretical framework.
The project will end with a pop-up exhibition on August 29th and a roundtable discussion with participants and teachers.
Coordinator: Kersti Laanmaa
