A proof of concept by the Unseen Art project, (currently funding on Indiegogo) which aims to make the world of fine art accessible to the blind and partially sighted by creating 3D versions of famous works, printable by anyone with access to a 3D printer.
Fair play in fairness.
Disney animator Glen Keane (Tarzan, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid) draws one of his own creations, Ariel, in 3D space using an HTC Vive headset in a promo for the 3D painting app Tilt Brush.
Since last year, ATAP google has been developing a new kind of mobile phone that tracks its own motion in three dimensions, using an internal sensor array to make over a quarter of a million position, depth and orientation measurements a second, building a three dimensional map of the space around the user.
A 3D illusion by Benjamin Muzzin of the University of Art and Design in Lausanne who sez:
I wanted to explore the notion of the third dimension, with the desire to try to get out of the usual frame of a flat screen. For this, my work mainly consisted in exploring and experimenting a different device for displaying images, trying to give animations volume in space. The resulting machine works with the rotation of two screens placed back to back, creating a three-dimensional animated sequence that can be seen at 360 degrees. Due to the persistence of vision, the shapes that appear on the screen turn into kinetic light sculptures.
Mmm. Rotasty.
Music: Murder! by Montgomery Clunk
NASA sez:
What would it look like to fly through the distant universe? To find out, a team of astronomers estimated the relative distances to over 5,000 galaxies in one of the most distant fields of galaxies ever imaged: the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF). Because it takes light a long time to cross the universe, most galaxies visible in the above video are seen when the universe was only a fraction of its current age, were still forming, and have unusual shapes when compared to modern galaxies. No mature looking spiral galaxies such as our Milky Way or the Andromeda galaxy yet exist. Toward the end of the video the virtual observer flies past the furthest galaxies in the HUDF field, recorded to have a redshift past 8. This early class of low luminosity galaxies likely contained energetic stars emitting light that transformed much of the remaining normal matter in the universe from a cold gas to a hot ionized plasma.

Dutch Illustrator Metin Steven adds a third dimension, thereby revealing the hidden depths of 2D platformers of yore.
Also available as prints and canvas art.
Behold – the 3Doodler – a pen that draws (using a special fast-cooling plastic) in three dimensions, in real time. Created by Boston company Wobbleworks and currently massively overfunded on Kickstarter.
Because it just might be the best thing ever.
