This is a re-post of something I wrote for another website in April 2016. I don’t do that much 3D printing anymore, but I certainly learned a lot during that time!

In the process, I’ve found a new career, […] "Visual Streams" installation during testing For the past several months I’ve been volunteering at the Exploratorium, the famous science museum and playground in San Francisco.

There’s far more than is shown in the video, if you’re in San Francisco check it out and go exploring!

A video used to be embedded here but the service that it was hosted on has shut down.
