Studio Joachim-Morineau's machine-made ceramics are at the crux of technology and [artisanal authenticity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handchiseled-marble-basin). The Eindhoven-based design firm developed a dripping machine that has the ability to create unique [ceramic products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virginia-sin) with immense mathematical precision. The device consists of a rotating platform that is controlled via a computer and a dripping system that dispenses [liquid porcelain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corcelain) at a set pace to create different patterns.

The process includes the placement of a plaster mold onto the platform and the filling of the dripping system with liquid clay. The machine-made ceramics become free from human error, although the process cannot be fully controlled. Studio Joachim-Morineau's dripping system is considered to be "the link between crafts and industries," highlighting how technology can be used to perfect an old and traditional form of human art.
