Kinematics from Nervous System

Explained: A system of 3D printing articulated models in folded arrangements for space-saving and textile properties.

Chosen: Nervous System does some pretty cool stuff, and I really like how these things fold up to fit within the confines of the printer bed, not to mention the beauty of the actual products.

Critiqued: Voronoi.

Explained: 3D printed disasters sold to the public. As they say, “If you do not have access to a desktop 3D printer, or have a loved one who is considering buying one, we can save you some time, money and frustration by shipping you one of our 3D print failures”.

Chosen: 3D printers are awful. I think it’s awesome how they’re making actual money from pieces that usually get thrown in the garbage.

Critiqued: They’re making actual money from pieces that usually get thrown in the garbage.
