"A material study exploring how to make wood malleable and rigid at the
same time.

It was part of a bigger study - thinking about topographical visualization
of a proposed architectural design (at scale), and being able to create
models that not only help visualize an idea, but become pat of the ideation
phase in real-time, allowing you to twist / lift / sink / bend / scrumple
it in every possible way. In turn, influencing the bigger design.

As a result of making these various tests and *hybrid materials*, people
took them away post-project, to use as bowls, holders, light-shades,
art-work in it's own right! I think the brass ones *(above)* were really
cool - but, that'll have to be a different instructable..."

(The trick is to meld wood veneer to copper mesh.)
