MAT 594X Comp Fab Week 1

Screen Shot 2020-04-07 at 10.43.28 AM.png

This is my first time exposed to rhino and grasshopper, took me some time to find out the interface and language -

I create this pattern by incorporating voronoi noise into the design.

My initial idea is to create cells for a imagined plants, I tried different ways by following the writtern tutorials. It was a great fun to create several dots and connect lines, applied algorithms and extrude.

I found the results is not what I expect. Instead of just have one piece of pattern, I choose to have several pieces of pattern together to make an assembled shape. I create some waterdrip shapes contained with voronoi cells, and then extrude. Then I create several another with algorithmic placement of dots with connected lines and then extrude - Lastly, I did 3D rotate of some pieces to make it sculptural -

I will upload some screenshots of the process later today ...
