Designer/Maker: Celebrating The Messiness of Process 
Advanced Casting Methods with FDM 3D Printing Hosted by En Torng Sung, Masters of Spatial Design - AUT University

En Torng Sung is currently studying a Master’s in Spatial Design at AUT University. She will share her explorations of some of the bespoke processes of casting through digital fabrication. En Torng has developed a system for ‘timeless candles’ where each builds upon the last. 
Her project Melt&Re: pushes the limitations of mold-creation through 3D printing, exploring the material-efficiency of digital fabrication through wax candles. The project tackles 2 part, 4 part and 6 part molds, and celebrates how quickly and resourcefully molds can be made with 3D technology, as well as the material compatibility of PLA 3D printing. In each candle, the colours melt into each other to create a continuous cycle of remolding and recycling wax.
