London-based sculpture 3D printing platform扫描世界最新的crowdfunding campaignhas got off to a flying start, raising nearly $5,000 in less than 24 hours.
通过3D文件市场托管的筹款计划的资助MyMiniFactory，扫描世界旨在成为社区主导的“开源博物馆”，使用户能够共享使用3D扫描捕获的可打印的人工制品，并且在过去的七年中，它构建了一个免费的数据库，其中包含20,000多个STL文件。
Through its latest campaign, Scan the World aims to raise sufficient capital to enable the community to undertake larger new projects, capturing their favorite art and relics around the globe. In the short time since the crowdfunding initiative launched, it has amassed more than 100 backers, and supporters can now help fund the group’s next big scanning projects in return for all-new pledge rewards.
Democratizing art and culture
Since being由乔纳森·贝克（Jonathan Beck）建立早在2014年，扫描世界已使用3D扫描来捕获50多个全球博物馆和机构的艺术形式和人工制品，并与业余爱好者社区分享。一旦对3D打印进行了优化，Beck and Co。有效地在Myminifactory上自由地作为STL文件分发这些模型，使用户可以随意下载和打印自己的副本。
通过公开合作的力量，扫描世界已设法“解放”了许多人存储在许多人中异国情调的私人收藏，并使群众很容易获得。贝克和他的小型团队还与文化机构合作，以帮助保护其历史悠久的作品，包括Statens Museum for KunstandThorvaldsensmuseumin Denmark as well as Sweden’s国家博物馆。
Elsewhere, Scan the World has continued to work closely with London’sVictoria and Albert Museum（V＆A）也是。最初，该小组被邀请display 3D printed sculptures在与La Biennale di Venezia一致的展览中，此后贝克被要求在博物馆讲话法院重新开放，以“庆祝复制品：过去，现在和未来”为主题。
最近，扫描世界有teamed up with Google Arts & Cultureto expand on its collection of open-source, 3D printable art. The collaboration has seen the models on the Google Arts & Culture platform become viewable in 3D, with STL files now available for download via Scan the World on MyMiniFactory’s website.
Taking art scanning to the next level
Running from June 29 2021 to July 28 2021, Scan the World’s latest fundraiser is designed to “make the community the curator of an Open Source Museum,” giving them a voice to decide which artefacts should be scanned next. In this spirit, the campaign is incorporating stretch goals that, if met, will cover the travel costs necessary to travel abroad, capture and share specific cultural relics.
If and when Scan the World hits its $9,500 target, for instance, backers will be able to choose between digitizing looted bronzes from China’s Old Summer Palace or an STL of the site’s ruins. Funding raised via the campaign will also go towards the costs behind scanning and processing sculptures, as well as supporting those developing tutorials and other video content for the platform.
As an added bonus for contributors, Scan the World has now added rewards to the fundraiser as well, including funky art-themed tee shirts, statuesque 3D prints and exotic renders from artists across the globe.
While entry-level donors will receive a set of three unique 3D printable artefacts created exclusively for Scan the World’s campaign, those who contribute more can choose between four different tee shirt designs, a physical A3-format 2D print, or even a 3D printed model from a selection of high-quality sculptures.
