In three decades, the processing capacity of computers has developed hyperbolically. Combined with recent advances in physics, mathematics, additive manufacturing (3D printing) and 3D acquisition (3D scanners). These advances make it possible to "close the loop" between the virtual and the real, and above all to integrate our understanding of physics at the very heart of the process of conception, or even of artistic creation. It becomes possible to design shapes whose physical properties are optimized for a particular use. These forms which emerge from the solution of a mathematical problem present quite an astonishing aesthetic. The aesthetics concealed in the equations, accessible only by mathematicians, is revealed in the eyes of all, at the junction between physics, computer science and mathematics.
