Launching Sisyphus home versions

Bruce Shapiro May 27, 2016

 

Since showing our new version of Sisyphus kinetic sculptures at last year's Bay Area Maker Faire, more than two thousand people have signed up to receive notifications about when they will be available. We have been working hard and we are very near that goal: 

We will be launching a Kickstarter campaign by October 1, the date of the World Maker Faire in NYC. We will be showing off our newly released models at the Faire, as well as the 3-meter museum version.

We hoped to be ready by the Bay Area Maker Faire last weekend, but we decided to extend the timeline-- we don't want to rush the release at the expense of compromising quality. We have expanded the number of models from two to three, and we have beta units out now, with many more going out this month. Feedback from our beta testers this summer will be crucial. 

We will have more frequent updates throughout the summer, leading up to the Kickstarter launch this fall.
