Some of my "failed" prints (one pictured below) ended up being cooler or more expressive than those that captured the digital file accurately. Others agree that technological "failure" yields artistic discovery, in which "glitches make good art." (See: Clark, Kristen. "When Glitches Make Good Art: Two Artists Turn Apartments into 3D-Printed Sculptures." IEEE Spectrum, 2016, 23.)
