Tim Anderson, when not working on Z Corp research and development, hosts pot-luck performance art dinners and builds tiny sculptures out of Zcorp Zprints. They are similar to the toy soldiers that a child plays with. Using a scan of his nude body, Anderson (with the help of Phil Dench, a programmer in Australia) created a pile of minuscule (4 inch) human figures arranged in a heap and called it, Human Barrel of Monkeys, 1999.

His model is based on the old “barrel of monkeys” toy. These resin-infiltrated off-white men, posed (in Anderson’s words) like “bazooka-man minus bazooka” and “horseless equestrian”, suggest the playful nature of the artist.
 
 

Self Portrait Cremation Urn Bookend, 1994-1999 is a is a self-styled effigy created with RP technology. Besides serving as a portrait sculpture memorial and cremation urn, it also functions as a bookend. Anderson explains,

There are several motivations for this work. I think headstones in a cemetery should be just that: stones shaped like heads. Or, if you want to call them “memorials”, they should really help you to remember the person under them. Instead most so-called headstones are as boring and depersonalized as a phone book. The portrait sculpture is the first step in the right direction.
