There is hardly an industrial process which is as optimized and streamlined yet customizable and complex as printed circuit board (PCB) production. At the same time it is highly accessible to anyone from electronic engineers to hobbyists, enthusiasts or artists thanks to very competitive and affordable prices and easy to use tools. Production files can be uploaded online for instant quotes. On submission customers can get real-time updates on the production process.

In the class Printed Circuit Board Art' we will explore printed circuit boards as a medium for artistic expression and will discuss and realize individual projects based on this investigation.

While doing so we will acquire an intermediate knowledge of the involved processes and learn how to use free software for schematic and PCB layout creation.

Electrical functionality isn't a requirement for the result. The processes can also be utilized to create graphical works or the PCB can be a negative for relief printing processes.

German description

Kaum ein industrieller Prozess ist so optimiert und perfektioniert, und dabei individualisierbar und komplex wie die Produktion von Leiterplatten. Gleichzeitig ist dieser Prozess für jeden zugänglich, ob Eletroniker*in oder Hobbyist*in, Enthusiast*in oder Künstler*in - dank einem starken Wettbewerb, erschwinglichen Preisen und einfach nutzbaren Werkzeugen. Die Dateien für die Produktion können hochgeladen werden um ein sofortiges Angebot zu erhalten. Nach dem Bezahlen kann der Kunde in Echtzeit den Produktionsverlauf nachverfolgen.

Im Kurs Printed Circuit Board Art werden Leiterplatten als ein Medium für künstlerischen Ausdruck erforscht und individuelle Projekte auf der Basis dieser Erkenntnisse realisiert.

Dabei werden wir fortgeschrittenes Basiswissen über die Prozesse erwerben und lernen wie freie Software zum Erstellen von Schaltplänen und Platinenlayout verwendet wird.

Elektrische funktionen sind keine Bedingungen für das Resultat. Der Herstellungsprozess für Leiterplatten kann auch dafür verwendet werden umd grafische Ergebnisse zu erzielen oder die Leiterplatte kann zu einem Stempel für Druckprozesse werden.
