Life has been pretty cool of late. First off, I am now employed as Creative Director at Acuity Design, a product design and development startup here in Missoula. I print prototypes, render CAD models, and produce marketing content for a living. And my coworkers are a great group of talented people. Wow. I also got on board with Taulman 3D as a tester of their excellent new nylon copolymer printer filament called "618." It's simply amazing stuff, strong, impact resistant, and flexible. It's a game changer for low cost 3D printers allowing us to print durable and functional parts. I also think it looks amazing so I've been printing vases and lamps with it. Several of my designs have been featured on Thingiverse and downloaded hundreds, even thousands of times around the world. It's very cool to see a picture of a physical object printed on the other side of the globe based on a small digital file you uploaded to the internet. Magic. Anyway, the attention I've gotten on Thingiverse caught the attention of some folks in New York City at the Openhouse Gallery. Openhouse hosts a 3D printing "pop-up store" called 3DEA and 3DEA asked if I wanted to have my worked displayed and sold at their next event. I said yes of course, which sent me into a printing frenzy getting samples and sale pieces ready for shipment. I don't have any idea yet how many (if any) things are selling or how things are being received, but I see my work in the background of pictures on their blog and I still can't believe it. I'll post pics from the show when I get my hands on some, but for now just a sampling of some of the pieces I sent to NY. <img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/Twisted Gear_640.jpg" width="640" height="857" width_o="1936" height_o="2592" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/Twisted Gear_o.jpg" data-mid="25955161" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/ZigZagVase_640.jpg" width="640" height="679" width_o="1936" height_o="2055" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/ZigZagVase_o.jpg" data-mid="25955167" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/splatbag-xl_640.jpg" width="640" height="826" width_o="2048" height_o="2643" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/splatbag-xl_o.jpg" data-mid="25955172" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/lit gunnysack_640.jpg" width="640" height="640" width_o="2048" height_o="2048" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/lit gunnysack_o.jpg" data-mid="25955178" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_3884_640.JPG" width="640" height="427" width_o="2048" height_o="1365" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_3884_o.JPG" data-mid="25955203" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_5231_640.jpg" width="640" height="478" width_o="2048" height_o="1529" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_5231_o.jpg" data-mid="25955224" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/BuzzVase-TOM-lit_640.jpg" width="640" height="583" width_o="2048" height_o="1867" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/BuzzVase-TOM-lit_o.jpg" data-mid="25955436" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_5226_640.jpg" width="640" height="478" width_o="2048" height_o="1529" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/IMG_5226_o.jpg" data-mid="25955479" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/Kochflake-Vase-pair_640.jpg" width="640" height="423" width_o="2048" height_o="1354" src_o="http://payload127.cargocollective.com/1/1/57630/4851244/Kochflake-Vase-pair_o.jpg" data-mid="25955567" border="0" align="left"/> It's been a while since I've updated this site on my adventures in 3D printing.

I was dealing with numerous issues raised by this new technology including authenticity, copyright, and ownership. My artist's statement is below, along with images from the show and a time lapse printing video that played during the opening. "originals" The rapidly growing world of 3D printing and 3D scanning will soon make it possible for anyone to digitize and reproduce exact replicas of anything they can snap a picture of. This is not an empty prophecy. Online libraries of digital models are already filling with such scans. 3D printers are getting cheaper and more abundant every day. As quality and ubiquity increase, so disappears one of the last vestiges of object-centered preciousness in the art world, the third dimension. With this work I simply explore the emerging new reality, and try to keep a sense of humor about it. People have been painting mustaches on copies of the Mona Lisa for decades. Now we can merge dollar store kitties with Michelangelo’s David, deface local monuments with kitsch pig heads, rearrange formalist monoliths; and all in small, colorful plastic models. The resulting objects are recognizable in their fine art roots, but are no more precious than the kitsch junk they’ve been merged with. My intent is not to celebrate this change, nor to decry it as something we should fear. Like all new technology, we artists must embrace it, and make art with it. The questions of copyright, ownership, and authenticity will linger for years. The plastic these models are made of will last even longer.

presentations on this project and would like to visit the websites I discussed and showed in the session, you can find the links below. What is 3D Printing? RepRap.org - Home of the Replicating Rapid Prototyper. This is where affordable 3D printing was born and continues to develop. Lulzbot, a small 3D printing company in Colorado, has a fleet of RepRaps busy all day every day making more RepRaps. Thingiverse - Hosted by MakerBot Industries, this is an online, user-generated library of digital 3D objects available for download and generally intended for 3D printing. Thingiverse has established itself as THE place to share and find things to print. 123D Catch is a free, cloud-based 3D scanning program. It delivers amazing results without requiring the purchase of any new equipment. My 123D Catch scanning rig, a design from Thingiverse. A compilation of print time lapses from this project. This exhibition of 3D prints was the culmination of my MFA in Integrated Digital Media. I was dealing with numerous issues raised by this new technology including... http://benmalouf.com/3D-Printing http://benmalouf.com/following/benmalouf.com/3D-Printing Mon, 16 Jan 2012 19:32:28 +0000 benmalouf.com 2619073 The School of Media Arts at The University of Montana purchased a Thing-o-Matic 3D printer kit in the Fall of 2011. I was fortunate enough to be the one who put most of it together and also got to bring the working printer home over winter break for optimization, testing, and lots of printing. I was hooked, so at the end of February I bought my own printer, a RepRap Prusa Mendel from Lulzbot. So far I've been very impressed with what it can do. It's been a blast, I've learned a ton, and I've printed a lot of cool stuff. Some I designed, some I downloaded from thingiverse.com. I've also brought the Thing-o-Matic into my 3D class and have really enjoyed watching my students make things with their fledgling modeling skills. More recently, I enjoyed presenting the printers to state higher education professionals at the XLi conference at The University of Montana, and have two more 3D printing presentations forthcoming later this spring. We even got a write-up in the Missoulian newspaper. Who knew, when that box of Thing-o-Matic parts showed up, how much fun I'd be having now? Now I'm looking into 3D scanning technologies to pair with our printers. My page on the Thingiverse is here. Three of my designs have been featured on the Thingiverse front page, and my Fat Bunbun model took First Runner Up in a recent modeling contest. Below are two slideshows with pictures of some successful prints. The first group are pictures of my new Prusa Mendel printer and its output. The second are images of prints from the School of Media Arts' MakerBot Thing-o-Matic.
