The Skull
July 10, 2014A few weeks back, Carl emailed a link to a Radiolab podcast article. The article provided links to 3D files for a Taung Skull, which Carl downloaded. Two days later, he handed me a tiny skull that we had built in our SLA labs. It’s a fascinating listen. The narrators brought to life the 1920’s […]
