Champaign-Urbana Community Fab Lab

Go check out the annual exhibition of artwork from the metals department! Many of the featured projects made use of Fab Lab tools. The opening is on the 19th of April, and takes up much of the main floor at the Krannert Art Museum.

The K-Droz association organizes ArtFab3D, an international contest for artistic works made by digital machinery. It will distinguish the works and artists showing the potential of CNC machines in artistic production at its best. The works, which should be submitted as photos, must be manufactured using CNC techniques, such as 3D printing, CNC machining, laser engraving, vinyl etching, water jet cutting, plasma cutting, etc... The contest theme is free and participation is open to all.
K-Droz will award a prize of € 250 to the winner and up to 5 designers will receive media coverage in several countries.

We could use more patron-created art up on our walls. Anyone who provides us with some sizable art (or even interactive creations!) to put up will not only get mad props but also 5$ worth of material or laser time, courtesy of Jeff Ginger.

The Fab Lab welcomed iFoundry's special guest Federico Joselevich, technology artist, in a one-day workshop at UIUC's Fab Lab where we participated in creating fun, whimsical projects that combined art and technology! People from varying locations and backgrounds gathered to combine their talents and strengths as a team, exploring the boundaries of their minds and hearts, and fabricating devices that touch and inspire individuals.
