SIGGRAPH 2025
Jennifer Jacobs is an Assistant Professor of Media Arts and Technology at the University of California Santa Barbara. She directs the Expressive Computation Lab- a group that researches the development of domain-specific computational tools for artists, craftspeople, and designers. Much of her recent work is in the area of Clay 3D printing. Her lab has developed new computational representations for toolpath-level design for clay 3D printing and new software that supports direct manipulation of 3D printer toolpaths. She has also developed new control systems for CNC machines that enable the integration of automated fabrication with direct manual control.
