group 07 – FABRICATION CLASS 03.// 3D PRINTING
par·a·site [par-uh-sahyt]
An organism which lives in or on another organism (its host) and bene ts by deriving nutrients at the other’s expense.
Origin: mid 16th century: via Latin from Greek parasitos ‘(person) eating
at another’s table’, from para- ‘alongside’ + sitos ‘food’.
Our parasitic architecture can be de ned as an adaptable, transient
and exploitive form of architecture that forces relationships with
host buildings in order to complete themselves.
Parasites cannot sustain their own existence without siphoning
energy and structure in this case from the surplus supply
demonstrated in host buildings.

The assignment consists in developing milling techniques that would affect the molds for the brick, through “RhinoCAM” plug-in.
The group tried most of the tools and finally, developed the following strategies: 1. Horizontal roughing, for all. 2. Two parallel finishings, at the direction of 45 and 135 degrees. 3. Finally, parallel finishing for the plane parts of the molds.
The final molds have the texture of positive points, that after being casted, print themselves as voids, creating the texture of fabric.
Because of the group being the first one of the batch, the mold given by us, was the curviest.
Therefore, during the casting process, two bricks would come off broken of the molds.
After experimenting with gauze, which resulted evident in the final texture of one brick, the group discovered that what needed to be adjusted was the technique for taking the bricks out of the molds.
