In January 2026, I.CEBERG participated in the TOKYO PROTOTYPE exhibition.
This series of articles introduces the works created by each MAISON.

Description
Images that exist within memory gradually deteriorate and become embellished over time. This work draws a parallel between that process and the misreadings and degradation that occur when real-world objects are digitized.
The flowers used as motifs were formed by amplifying the noise and misinterpretations generated during the process of scanning physical objects with a 3D scanner.
The blurred images on the reverse side depict distorted versions of each flower, captured through a customized digital camera.
These images are printed onto metal plates that slowly deteriorate over time.
プロセス
1. Device Preparation
The Revopoint MINI 2 was used as the device for 3D scanning.
This device reproduces the shape of physical objects in a digital environment.
Among available 3D scanners, it was chosen for its relatively affordable price and for offering sufficient precision to capture fine surface details.
2. Modeling
To prepare objects for 3D scanning, various materials were used to create physical forms.
In this project, shapes made by heating plastic sheets proved especially effective, as the process introduced an appropriate level of chance, resulting in compelling forms.
3. Scanning
The various modeled objects were scanned using a 3D scanner.
When comparing the scanned data with the physical objects, information loss and noise became apparent due to the limitations of the scanner’s accuracy.
4. Amplifying Noise
Focusing on the noise generated within the digital data, a system was developed to amplify these elements.
By applying a subtle shrinking simulation, the form was gradually shaped.
5. Rendering
Textures are applied to the objects before rendering.
