3D printable recycled textiles : material innovation and a resurrection of the forgotten ‘shoddy’ industry (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vettese, S. (2017, September). 3D printable recycled textiles : material innovation and a resurrection of the forgotten ‘shoddy’ industry. Presented at Intersections, Loughborough University London

This paper will disseminate an interdisciplinary project, undertaken at Edinburgh Napier University between the Design and Advanced Materials. Several 3D printable materials are commercially available that use recycled material, but none that incorpo...

A study of the relationship between personalised 3D printed 'Souvenirs of Place' and public perception of modern architectural heritage (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vettese, S., Anastasiadou, C., & Vones, K. (2017, April). A study of the relationship between personalised 3D printed 'Souvenirs of Place' and public perception of modern architectural heritage. Presented at EAD12/2017 Design for Next, Rome, Italy

At present, there is a disconnection between academic and public perception of Modern heritage, particularly Brutalist architecture. This research utilises the processes and experiences of making 3D printed ‘souvenirs of place’ to investigate their p...

A study of the multi generational relationship with making through mediated designing in collaborative, digital environments: implications for learning and open access fabrication (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vettese, S., Thompson, P., & Allan, D. (2016, November). A study of the multi generational relationship with making through mediated designing in collaborative, digital environments: implications for learning and open access fabrication. Presented at Open Design for E-very-thing

In this paper, the researchers will investigate different ways in which school age, 'generation net' children learn, through non-linear, mediated, collaborative ‘making’ environments, enabled by online communities of ‘citizen practitioners' and maker...

An exploration of the sustainable and aesthetic possibilities of 3D printing onto textiles as an alternative to traditional surface decoration (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Burn, K., Vettese, S., & Shackleton, J. (2016, November). An exploration of the sustainable and aesthetic possibilities of 3D printing onto textiles as an alternative to traditional surface decoration. Presented at Circular Transitions, London, UK

Embellishment, in a fashion and textile context, can be considered an extraneous decorative process that has a significant detrimental impact on the environment. However, aesthetic and cultural theories, in addition to consumer appeal, show that it i...
