    Creative people only engage with digital technology when systems enhance and support them and their practice. Some shelve the advantages that digital technologies such as 3D digital designing and modelling offer for reasons such as steep learning curves which leave little time for developing hand skills. The standard industry programmes are developed for product designers and engineers who are designing for mass production and their programmes need to be complex for this work. These are Computer Aided Design (CAD) programmes such as Rhino, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc.

    Artists and designer makers do not want to work with interfaces too complex for creative purposes as these stifle ‘play’. Plus having to adapt to different methods of working and interaction are alienating.

    The haptic (virtual 3D touch) 3D modelling package, Anarkik3DDesign, developed by Anarkik3D Ltd is designed for creative people for the way they work. This programme was used by a class for digital design at Fife College in Scotland. Students who had tried CAD software were particularly nervous before hand. They were delighted when this programme turned out to be straightforward: “I was initially feeling negative about this class as I have never been great at previous 3D computer designing programs like CAD… It was really easy and enjoyable to just play and experiment. It opened up my eyes to the many possibilities in terms of creating jewellery. I have really loved this class and feel I have picked it up rather quickly.  I will definitely be using it for my samples for my graded unit”. (2 Brogan).
