Trumpcare® IUD Launch
700 Trumpcare® intrauterine devices (IUD) were created as an art installation. The exclusive product launch is at SSHH, 516 6th St. NYC on Friday 13th from 6p -9p. Afterparty: YES. Viewings will be available Saturday September 14th and Sunday September 15th from 2p-7p.
Come have a drink with us and share the anxiety.
An IUD is wrapped in copper and inserted by a doctor into a uterus. It works by releasing copper ions into the cervix which creates a hostile environment for sperm. IUDs are more than 99% effective as a form of birth control.
700 IUDs were designed in Rhino, high-resolution 3D printed in China with SLA plastic, and hand-wound with copper. Thanks to all the supporters who came out to NYC Resistor on multiple occasions to hand-wind IUDs.
We got a little press! We love Dezeen and we’re honored to be included!

Dance at Resistor, for science!
Calling all Resistors and friends: We need you for a special project at the 23 August open Craft Night.
Alex is a PhD student studying astrophysics who wants to help make science accessible to the public via the medium of interpretive dance. He’s making a video for the Dance Your PhD contest and needs an ensemble of dancers to communicate that his data analysis methods will be applied to billions of never-before-observed galaxies. Don’t dance? No problem! If you can do the hokey pokey, you can dance this PhD! (For inspiration, check out Alex’s all-time favorite entry.)
Please join us to film the final scenes in and outside Resistor on Thursday, 23 August between 7:30 and 9:30 PM. And do feel free to share this announcement on social media. We look forward to dancing with you soon!

EAGLE Weekend Photos
Thanks to all who came out for our Autodesk EAGLE meetup and classes this past weekend! It was a whirlwind of PCB design fun. Read on for more photos.
We ate pizza Friday night while dipping a toe into what the weekend had in store.
The Saturday intro class used Tinkercad Circuits to ease the transition from breadboard to schematic.
Here’s TA Sophi Kravitz with her flashy new mousepad…
Special thanks to instructor Matt Berggren and EAGLE teammates Edwin and Aish for traveling to be with us. We hope you’ll come back soon!
