Geez, some people have such great ideas. This post over at GetLoFi.com highlighting an audio sampler made from laser cut cardboard and silk-screened conductive paint got me thinking… has anyone developed an electrically conductive glaze? Seems pretty simple — an iron rich glaze, maybe with some silver? Then you could run low voltage through it [...]
For both future use (at the proposed workshop, fall 2009) and probably here and there during this whole this project here are some links to the Art Tech Center and the tools that I can make available to you at MICA (Maryland Institute College of Art): www.mica.edu/tss/printing… www.mica.edu/tss/printing… there is also a Roland GX-300 vinyl [...]
Cool Instructable about using free and open source software (SketchUp and Inkscape) to design in 3D and then layout your pieces for 2D laser cutting. www.instructables.com/id/… sketchup.google.com code.google.com/p/sketchu… www.inkscape.org
Here’s a short tutorial I just ran across. It talks about the in’s and out’s of Zbrush (which I know nothing about) and the process of sending computer files out to be prototyped.

Lady Ada’s soldering tutorial page has got some links to demonstrations on the basics.
