I like them, flaws and all. My doctorate was computer graphics and my flat is full of 3D printed sculptures of generative art and canvas prints of visualisations and slime moulds and all sorts.

The imperfections are what gives them character.

Nice! Yeah generative art is exactly where we are coming from, if you are into this topic you might have heard about the "Generative Design" book. Anyway.

I totally agree with you about the imperfection, especially if you look at it from a creative perspective, that's when interesting things happen. We wanted to keep this rough state, also to make the progress visible. When I talk about it in lectures, I often show the image below, where you can clearly see the use of the tool through the traces, which is something we wanted to keep and transfer to the digital realm.
