  • A NEW TECHNIQUE in GLASS ART JOANNE MITCHELL a Thesis Su
    PRECISION AIR ENTRAPMENT THROUGH APPLIED DIGITAL AND KILN TECHNOLOGIES: A NEW TECHNIQUE IN GLASS ART JOANNE MITCHELL A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Sunderland for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2015 Precision Air Entrapment through Applied Digital and Kiln Technologies: A New Technique in Glass Art Joanne Mitchell PhD 2015 1 Precision Air Entrapment through Applied Digital and Kiln Technologies: A New Technique in Glass Art Joanne Mitchell 2015 Abstract The motivation for the research was to expand on the creative possibilities of air bubbles in glass, through the application of digital and kiln technologies to formulate and control complex air entrapment, for new configurations in glass art. In comparison to glassblowing, air entrapment in kiln forming glass practice is under-developed and undocumented. This investigation has devised new, replicable techniques to position and manipulate air in kiln-formed glass, termed collectively as Kiln-controlled Precision Air Entrapment. As a result of the inquiry, complex assemblages of text and figurative imagery have been produced that allow the articulation of expressive ideas using air voids, which were not previously possible. The research establishes several new innovations for air-entrapment in glass, as well as forming a technical hypotheses and a practice-based methodology. The research focuses primarily on float glass and the application of CNC abrasive waterjet cutting technology; incorporating computer aided design and fabrication alongside more conventional glass-forming methods. The 3-axis CNC abrasive waterjet cutting process offers accuracy of cut and complexity of form and scale, across a flat plane of sheet glass.

  • Glass Fabrication
    RESOURCE + PROCESS MANAGEMENT Glass fabrication Rima Ajlouni The University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT ABSTRACT: In architecture, the prevalence of computational design and digital fabrication has led to an increase in exploration of casting modulated geometry using fabricated molds. However, the use of mold making strategies are often limited to casting materials that conform easily to mold geometry (i.e. concrete, plaster, resin, ceramics, etc.). It is rarely that fabrication strategies are used to explore materials with challenging behavioral properties such as glass. As a result, glass in its non-flat form has been underutilized in contemporary architecture. Because of its complicated physical behavior and the technical difficulties associated with the fabrication processes, architecture education often avoids exploring such medium. One key challenge with casting glass using fabricated refractory molds relates to understanding the behavior of glass under certain physical conditions and temperature profiles. If such parameters are not anticipated, the geometry of the final casted elements can be substantially different from the design intentions. This research argues that computation can be used to predict glass forming behavior under different temperature profiles, which can inform the design and fabrication processes. The goal is to highlight the importance of integrating the complexities of the physical reality into the design and fabrication processes, especially within the context of the educational experience. To contribute to this creative discourse this paper explores the limits of precision from computation to fabrication as it relates to casting glass. The objective is to design and test an algorithm for predicting edge/corner geometry of casted glass under different temperature profiles.

  • Let There Be Light Catalogue
    LET THERE BE LIGHT Stained Glass and Drawings from the Collection of Oakbrook Esser Studios 1 LET THERE BE LIGHT Stained Glass and Drawings from the Collection of The exhibition Let There be Light Stained Glass and Drawings Oakbrook Esser Studios from the Collection of Oakbrook Esser Studios and related programs have been made possible through funding by the Marquette University Andrew W. Mellon Fund, the Kathleen and Frank Thometz Charitable Foundation, the Eleanor H. Boheim Endowment Fund and the John P. Raynor, S.J. Endowment Fund. This exhibition came to fruition through the dedication and work of many people. First and foremost, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Paul Phelps, owner of Oakbrook Esser Studios in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Paul treated us with great kindness and generously gave his time and knowledge throughout the two year process of putting this exhibition together. The incredibly talented staff of Oakbrook Esser welcomed us to the studio time and again and graciously worked around our many intrusions. Warm thanks in particular go to Dondi Griffin and Johann Minten. Davida Fernandez-Barkan, Haggerty intern and art history major at Harvard University, was integral in laying the groundwork for the exhibition. Her thorough research paved the way for the show to come to life. We also want to thank essayists Dr. Deirdre Dempsey (associate professor, Marquette University, Department of Theology) and James Walker (glass artist, New Zealand) for their contributions Cover image to this catalogue.

In short: The body of the glass, the special texture and transparency as well as the glowing colours are of an individuality which gives them an unmistakable identity. LambertsGlas® can only be produced through the art of glassblowing. Glashütte Lamberts continues to adhere to these very old and deep-rooted traditions. Tools and methods of production have remained basically the same through the centuries. The quality of our products, however, has evolved into the high standards we hold today for our entire range of colours and textures. Many of our products have changed through the ages.

  • CHAPTER 1 Introduction
    27 CHAPTER 1 Introduction The aim of this study is to investigate the well-known and widespread problem of severe paint loss from stained glass windows made by many firms in the mid- to late-nineteenth century. This problem results in the fading of painted detail from the surface of the glass, in the worst cases leaving pieces completely blank, as well as ‘ghosting’ of areas where the paint has been lost (Figures 1 and 2). It has become known as the ‘borax problem’,1 most likely due to a letter sent by William Morris to George Howard, around 1880, in which he writes: We (and I believe all other glass painters) were beguiled by an untrustworthy colour, having borax in it, some years ago, and the windows painted with this are going all over the country. Of course we have taken warning and our work will now be all right. We have given instructions to our man to take out the faulty glass, which we will – restore! – at once, and pay for that same ourselves – worst luck! Borax is the name of the culprit: the colour makers, finding that the glass- painters wanted a colour that would burn well at a lowish temperature, mixed borax with it to that end; but unluckily glass of borax is soluble in water, and hence the tears wept by our windows – and our purses. We use harder colour now, so that if any window of ours goes now it must be from other causes; bad burning or the like; I don’t think as things go that this is like to happen to us.2 As Morris suggests, many (although not all) stained glass firms of the period experienced the problem of paint loss.
