This is a fun and interactive pop-up event where groups of friends, couples and individuals can come together, strike a fun pose and have themselves immortalized in three dimensions. Our event will feature live 3D printing and scanning every evening of the week leading up to Valentine’s day. All attendees can have themselves scanned in three dimensions with the opportunity to purchase a 3D printed miniature of themselves afterwards.
Ann Ireland’s new novel The Blue Guitar, a tale of love, art and redemption, is the focus of TINARS’ first event for 2013. Her book, published by Dundurn Press, dramatizes the lives that intersect with Toby, a talented musician who wants to come back from his biggest failure and make something of his life.

London-based artist-curated bookshop Luminous Books finds shelter at Unit/Pitt Projects this month. Luminous Books is a temporary bookshop of second hand fiction, philosophy, and cultural curiosities, alongside reading lists and visual compositions, exploring paths of reading and creative intersections between disciplines. A collaboration with artist-led book project Owl Cave, based in San Francisco, responds to the internal logic of building and navigating a collection, with extracts from Owl Cave’s library of feminist literature and a selection of contemporary artistic publications.
