A Concerto for Three MakerBots

3D Printing & Imaging Music

CrashSpace hosted a night of hand made music on June 25th 2010. Among the performances was a Concerto for Three MakerBots composed by Frank Capodieci. MakerBots are 3D printers that create objects out of plastic, but in this case the extruder portion was removed and the stepper motors were driven at different speeds to create music.
