    Did you know that it is possible to "print" buildings?
    Enrico Dini, an Italian engineer, has realized this. Watch the video and check out the site.
    Unfortunately the video is in Italian, the site is in English.

    Big art too. This is about 2m tall, 1300kg. It's going to Vancouver, so I'm told.

    DShape! Yes, that's "Rygo", though modified some to deal with the weight.

    I didn't lift a finger. Well, I did lift some fingers to make the design cement-friendly, but that was my whole contribution -- the project is happening due to the generosity of Dr Dini and the promoting know-how of JF Brandon, professional wild man.

    My credentials as the world's laziest sculptor are secure...feels great when other people do my job for me!
