Regine over on We-Make-Money-Not-Art has a great round up of rapid prototyping from Ron Arad’s students of Design Product at RCA in London – “Rapid prototyping was developed as a way of producing prototypes for intricate medical and automotive components. A more accurate name for it is 3D printing, as it builds up objects layer by layer, working in the same way as an inkjet printer but creating solid forms out of liquid or powdered polymers, rather than just 2D patterns.” – Link.
