3D-Printed Gun Bought And Displayed By London Art Museum

Sparrowvsrevolution writes: The world’s first 3D-printed gun known as the Liberator has been treated as a technological marvel and a terrorist threat. Now it’s officially become a work of art. On Sunday, London’s Victoria & Albert museum of art and design announced that it’s buying two of the original Liberator printed guns from their creator, the libertarian hacker non-profit known as Defense Distributed, and will display them during its Design Festival. Cody Wilson, Defense Distributed's founder, calls the museum's acquisition of the gun a victory for his group: "It will now be this curated, permanent cultural provocation."
