Feb 9, 2016. Norwalk, Connecticut’s Xerox is a brand name that has become so ubiquitous with the document technology products they invented that the word “xerox” has become synonymous with making a photocopy. But the company has also been responsible for the invention of personal computing devices like the mouse, the ethernet and the very concept of desktop computer itself. The company has recently revealed that they are developing a 3D printer of their own, and they also licensed the intellectual property rights to some pre-existing 3D printing technology to 3D Systems a few years ago. It turns out that Xerox is one of the original companies to develop 3D printing, and despite never producing one themselves could be considered one of the 3D printing industry’s founding fathers.

Feb 9, 20163D printing and art is a staying point as the technology develops well beyond the early days when artists, like Corinne Whitaker, who are interested in digital 3D design and printing, were largely on their own when it comes to mastering the technology or accessing a wide variety of software and hardware available in today’s burgeoning marketplace. In fact, I am relieved that I am a writer instead of a visual designer because the choices and techniques out there are far too numerable to fully grasp.
