Use Blender to turn a photo into a 3D-printable model

It’s a Mistake to Mistake Content for Content.
The camera doesn’t work for us. We work for the camera.
Context is the new content.

Flusser claimed that the content of any given photograph
is actually the camera that produced it.

Twentysix Gasoline Stations, Every Building on the Sunset Strip, Thirtyfour Parking Lots, Nine Swimming Pools, A Few Palm Trees, No Small Fires” is a modern remake of some of Ruscha’s famous books, all grouped in one volume. Unlike the original books it relates to, this work was made entirely at my Berlin studio. I didn’t visit Los Angeles to make the book and I didn’t use a camera either. The camera is out there.”

Suns (From Sunsets) from Flickr, 2006-ongoing

This is a project I started when I found 541,795 pictures of sunsets searching the word “sunset” on the image hosting website, Flickr. I cropped just the suns from these pictures and uploaded them to Kodak, making 4″ x 6″ machine prints from them.

Attracted to Light from the Long Exposure
“Attracted to Light narrates the erratic behavior of a moth upon the stimulus of light,” Mann has explained. The insect’s path through the air is captured using cinematic technology and materialized through rapid prototyping (also called 3D printing). The design is part of Mann’s Long Exposure series, which also features lamps based on the trajectories of a bird in flight, taking off, and landing.”

Anon, “Satan Malade,” from Les Diableries, c. 1861,
hand-tinted stereocard (detail)

Certainly the most remarkable body of work made for stereo viewing, however, wasLes Diableries, a suite of 72 cards published anonymously in Paris, 1861. Produced during the rise of the Second Empire, Les Diableries‘s sculptural visions of satanic torture and merriment would have meant swift imprisonment for the artists under Napoleon III’s authoritarian rule.

The process of creation transcends a single medium and instead finds outlet within the archetype of an opera, the architecture of a building, the stains in a watercolor drawing, the design of a chair, the choreography of a dance, the rhythm of a sonnet, or the multiple dynamics revealed in a Video Portrait.

Robert Frank’s The Americans is one of the most iconic photographic projects of the 20th century… This classic project was the starting point for Toronto-based artist Dafydd Hughes’ Every Face in the Americans, which saw him ‘feed’  Frank’s collection of photographs to iPhoto’s facial recognition algorithm to recontextualize the work as the basis of a web archive and a print on demand book.
