My name is Iikka Keränen. My professional background is in video game development, mostly as a level designer (Valve software since 2001) but I do "art for art's sake" whenever I have the time and inspiration.

I'm really excited about the possibilities of 3D printing as it combines the convenience of 3D modelling software with an end product that I can touch, or show someone without a computer. And finally, thanks to Shapeways, there's an affordable service so I can try it out!

So small question.....I saw your name and the word art. So I thought... Yes! Some Finnish / Scandinavian art to see really soon at Shapeways. Then I saw Hi from Seattle. Whatever, the explanation, I have seen people from all over the globe at Shapeways so we must be able to inspire each other!!

Keep us updated on your experiences- I think the best way for us all to learn how to use this technology best is through eachother's experiences.

Really? Any talk of setting up production here as well? I'd be very interested to be involved... ]]> Concept Visual 2008-10-29T21:15:22-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=1822&th=391#msg_1822 WetMorgoth 2008-10-29T22:28:15-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6102&th=391#msg_6102 My father was a machinist at the Boeing Wind tunnel and about 15 years ago he described the plastic cured by laser method of 3d printing to me. It is amazing that in a very short time that process is made available to everyone with a computer online.

I am impressed with the assortment of materials available. ]]> samuraidave_1 2009-08-27T19:32:04-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6108&th=391#msg_6108
