| − | To make my own artifact I decided to use a totally new technique for me. I have been wanting to use the laser cutter before but never got a project / concept that went with this technique. Now however I finally had my way with laser cutting. It was not necessarily difficult. You just need to know what the right settings are. After I set the laser cutter up I had it checked by Brigitte just to be sure. After that the laser started to cut out my lettering. I was inspired by Albert Heijn moestuintjes. Each letter is its own research process of how mold grows on certain types of food.

| − | === Collective Example & Pushing Limits ===
| |
| − | For the collaborative work we went to Indianen studio in Antwerpen. Under the super vision of Tim Knapen we got to work with his printing machine. We tried to push it to its limits by working together with different materials and inks. At first we drew out SVG files with a normal fineliner or marker. In the end Manouk made a design out of dots. We wanted to make a dotted picture with a brush pen. To get the ink through this brush without having to refill the tip we put the cord of an IV on it. At the end was a syringe to create pressure. Koen was the one that was the one that put too much pressure. Because of the extra pressure 'blobs' appeared on the paper. At first we had blue indian ink and later we continued with black acrylic mixed with water. Together we created something that even Tim was surprised and enthusiastic about!

| − | '''''Why I make,'''''
| |
| − | The main reason I chose to work with uncontrollable substances was because I wanted to push myself in being more flexible and less rigid. Digital Craft is a practice where you can explore and experiment to your heart’s content. I tried to use this experimenting to open my mind. Not to work with the common materials to print with. I started with silk-screening food wanting to let mold and fungi help my design process. The research into growing molds and fungi interested me a great deal. I make because I want to have an adventure in new techniques and materials and I am not done exploring yet. I believe I will never be done with exploring or having adventures
