In computer graphics it's referred to as the "Utah teapot" because the 3D model was created at the University of Utah. But it was originally a Melitta brand teapot. It is still manufactured by German company Friesland, which I bought it from. Unfortunately it appears they recently had a fire and their webshop is temporarily closed, but I think you can also get it off of Amazon. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] noughtnaut@feddit.dk 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I read once that the original model didn't have a bottom surface? Idk but I suspect that's why it's referred to as useless in the meme. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 years ago I mean, it also didn't physically exist, and was therefore tricky to use for your tea. permalink fedilink source parent
