    The STC is trying to contribute to the Creative Commons with documentation from our workshops on 3D making. In doing so, I’m learning about the “wiki” community; which can be a bit tough.

It doesn’t matter what the content is, there is always a price to host it on the internet.

    Outside of being a technologist, I love being a patron supported artist. Being able to see your prints hanging on a wall as part of a show, as opposed to rendered on a screen always puts a smile on an artist’s face. Being able to talk to folks as they look at your art, and share the…
