The Profilograph is a bizarre device created by Chicago artist Pablo Garcia
based on a series of four books written in 1528 by German artist
Albrecht Dürer that examine the geometry of the male profile through
carefully documented illustrations. The device transforms a series of
Dürer’s drawings into a contiguous 3D extrusion that rotates on a
circular spindle causing a shadow that morphs between each profile. The
machine was designed in 2008 for an exhibition at the University of
Michigan. You can learn more about the Profilograph here, and if you liked this also check out Kumi Yamashita’s origami profiles.
