The first piece of Kinematics clothing, a 3D-printed nylon bodice, will be debuted in New York City this week at the opening of the exhibition “Coding the Body” at apexart. The bodice is composed of 1,320 unique hinged pieces and was 3D-printed as a single part. In order to fit the bodice into the printer and minimize the space it took up in the machine, the design was printed in a flattened form that was designed with Nervous System’s “Kinematics” folding software. The bodice was wearable straight out of the printer; no pieces were manually assembled and no fasteners were added. The back features integrated 3D-printed snaps for fastening the garment.
Scientists are increasingly uncovering evidence of cross-talk between the nervous system and the immune system in many diseases, including psoriasis. Neurons (red) in mouse skin communicate with dermal dendritic cells (green), a type of immune cell, to drive inflammation in psoriasis. This role of the nervous system presents a new pathway for researchers to develop treatments for psoriasis and possibly other inflammatory skin diseases.

we hired a professional fashion photographer to do some photos
I think they turned out pretty well. We are going to be in Metropolis Magazine in April and we wanted to have some good shots to let them pick from.
Jellyfish are especially good models for studying the evolution of embryonic tissue layers. Despite being primitive, jellyfish have a nervous system (stained green here) and musculature (red). Cell nuclei are stained blue. By studying how tissues are distributed in this simple organism, scientists can learn about the evolution of the shapes and features of diverse animals.

we tested out thinner versions of some of our rings with Shapeways new silver 3dprinting service.
We also created a new design similiar to the wave bracelet but wavy in the front and straight in the back. It's more detailed than any of our other rings with a lot of tiny detail.
we also got prototypes of our new line of porcelain tableware today....so I shot the photos on a plate prototype.
Dorsal root ganglia (DRG) are sensory neurons that form on the outside of the spinal cord and extend axons throughout our bodies as part of our peripheral nervous system during development. This DRG has been grown in medium conditioned by endothelial cells, and shows significantly longer axonal extensions from the center of the explant (circular region of dense staining for β-III tubulin, red) than explants grown in standard medium. Isolating the factors that are responsible for this enhanced growth is essential to understand how vascular and neuronal systems pattern together during development. These findings will be used to develop 3D model systems to study these processes and direct the angiogenic response in regenerating tissues to ultimately encourage re-innervation.

I feel as if my friend Sophie and I are partners in this anatomical unraveling. And may it ever unravel, as it manages to hang together. That's the dilemma of the shoulder really.

not sure if we will paint or clear coat these. we have to move them to boston flat pack so no finishing until we get there.
held together with wood joinery only

Larval zebrafish are optically clear, allowing researchers to observe the nervous system as it develops and monitor the activity of neurons during behavior. In this image, 6 day-old zebrafish swim near the water's surface.
