Challenge: Clay 3D printers open up new opportunities, as for example the experimentation with new bio-based materials. Nevertheless, many challenges remain open, for example:
Can we print these materials with the Stone Flower 3DP at IDC?
How should the material be made, conserved, discarded?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of this material? Design applications? Design and printing guidelines?
How can we engage different stakeholders and actors in this mission? How can we make this a self-sustainable system?
