2006

"Repeat and Variation is a project designed to give the Autonomatic research team an opportunity to test out some of their hybrid hand and digital making methods, and give Hidden Art Cornwall members the freedom to approach digital technologies with a creative mindset" - Dr Katie Bunnell, Autonomatic, University College Falmouth

"Hidden Art Cornwall have collaborated with Autonomatic to provide our members with a valuable opportunity to develop innovative new products through the exploration of digital technologies. This project has helped designer-makers to increase their manufacturing capabilites and access new markets" - Jessie Higginson, Project Manager, Hidden Art Cornwall

The Repeat and Variation competition supported 5 members of Hidden Art Cornwall to develop their design work in new directions through 'hands on' experimentation - developing their individual visual vocabularies, through exploring the potential of digital technologies in relation to a variety of materials and other processes to produce form and pattern with infinite possibilities for variation.
