In her Filament Sculptures project, pioneer digital artist LIA has been researching the behaviour of filament-based 3D printers. During this masterclass, she will explore with the participants new approaches for 3D printing sculptures, based on computation, the physical properties of the printing material and direct control of the machine.

Close up of the feeding filaments of the Ice Cream Cone Worm.
The head of this worm bears two groups of large, slightly curved, golden bristles. The bristles are used to loosen and turn over the sand, and the tentacles collect particles for food and for tube building.

testing some ABS from 3D Universe - worked great! These are printed on an Ultimaker 2+ Extended in ABS, 0.1mm layer height and a 0.4mm nozzle.
A huge filament I had the chance to image a few days earlier
It keep the same basic shape but developes nicely
To show how big is this filament I added Earth in scaled size.

My solution to preventing the filament spindle box from jamming all the time. Draw around the top or bottom of the spindle on some cardboard (I used the MakerBot packing) and cut out 2 discs. Next hollow out the middle so that the lazy-susan mechanism can fit inside, it doesn't need to be that accurate. Finally use some double sided tape or glue to attach them to the bottom of the filament spindle box under the spindle. This should allow the filament spindle to turn freely but also add some minor friction to it so that it cannot gain momentum as it unreels. This design also prevents any filament that does happen to get loose from going under the spindle and jamming the mechanism.
