Hi, I was in your situation recently. I felt I was not getting exposure to exciting technology or projects. I often learn things in my spare time, but wanted to apply it on the job. I spoke to my manager and now I'm working on some great new projects, using great new technologies and learning a lot more.
The point I'm trying to make is, speak to your boss and explain how you feel. They can try to change things to suit how you would like to work.
Ultimately I'd like to be working for a start up, but deep down I know I'd be frustrated unless it was my own start up - so I plan to work, build up money from the job (while bootstrapping ideas / learning new tech / reading great info) then launch my own startup in a coworking hub where I can speak with like minded people daily.
