3D Notion is the first New York-based show that confidently focuses on
3D printed art. The three-dimensional print reconsiders not only how
objects are designed and executed, but allows numerous new techniques
to explore the notion of product. The show considers ways in which
artists may insinuate product within the broader uses of perpetually
expanding technologies, ranging from do-it-yourself fabrication, to
exacting reproduction and one-of-a kind innovation. Examining new
modalities of production and technique allows the artist to
appropriate and go beyond pre-existing technological expression while
exploring the boundaries of a new territory.
Some of the work included in the show can be found online at sites
like Thingiverse.com, while some of the work can be seen in gallery
shows both in the United States, and abroad. Some work is downloadable
on-line, while other work can be generated using specific online apps.
The notion of 3D technology regurgitates a modern history filled with
promises of domestic utopias negotiated by technology. Just as the
vacuum cleaner or microwave once assured a release from domestic
drudgery, 3D printing promises to bring the means of production—a
virtual gallery of functioning three-dimensional objects, into our
private realms, our homes. 3D printing—and what this show represents
(while presented with confidence in these artists’ uses of 3D
printing) is yet, another promise of a utilitarian turning point.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
