theverymany ecotect analysis grid 2 rhino This tutorial runs you through the process of exporting your rhino geometry into ecotect and then bring the analysis grid data back into rhino. The method shown is a work around – numeric data is imported into rhino as a heightfield surface, then Grasshopper is used to read the height, which is then used to control the dimension of other geometries. For this tutorial, you’ll need this Rhinoscript, Grasshopper definition, and Sample Data 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

We will be using Processing along with CAD tools like Rhino3D to produce parametric models to output 3D models for digital fabrication. MakerBot Industries have graciously offered to lend us some MakerBot Thing-o-matics to produce models from the workshop. Participants are also free to use on-site KNK High-Force cutters. The full announcement follows below, please visit Studio Mode’s announcement for enrollment and more details. Also check out the series of Processing primers I’ve been writing in preparation for the workshop.

2009 June Belousov–Zhabotinsky Oscillation The generative animatronics of the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction is created by non-linear oscillations between two chemicals, usually a bromide and an acid. The arising concentric ring patterns are reminiscent of bacteria and fungus growth, no surprise then that the BZ reaction can be used as a model for biological development. As with all kinds of patterns of periodicity, the hallmark concentric gradients of BZ reaction seem to crop up in other domains too and at much different growth rates. Flickr provides a great hunting ground for some fine Banded Agates from across the globe. Banded Agate The Laker Agate has a distinctly bacteriopoetic arrangement of organisms growing upon tangerine facade. Hans Jenny, in his book Cymatics, notes that the effect of sound waves on liquids and powders also has the ability to shape the substances into banded hydrodynamic and precipitative landscapes, once more mimicking the chemical oscillations of the BZ reaction.

diseño paramétrico y fabricación digital developer:rhinoscript101 Contents Introduction RhinoScript 101 is a project which aims to ease the transition from user to developer. Scripting is an extremely powerful yet relatively easy to learn way of automating Rhino. However, since it involves programming the mental threshold for beginners is rather high. RRhinoScript 101 offers a set of articles about the subject, starting at the very beginning. Initially the RhinoScript 101 Primer was released as a set of articles which could be downloaded from this webspace. This publication is still a work-in-progress. RhinoScript 101 collection consisting of: The Examples (ZIP) The Multiple Choice test ( PDF ) Note, the primer uses a number of methods that were only recently added to RhinoScript .

Developing Digital Design Techniques (doctoral thesis) Doctoral Thesis 2005 Download full thesis here >>>>> Abstract Industrial designers, architects, graphical designers and others have slowly adapted to the new digital design tools. This thesis documents and develops a long-term exploration of a special type of design, the digital design that appeared during the nineties and that possibly started with the animation techniques introduced by Greg Lynn and the experimental use of diagrams introduced by Peter Eisenman. This thesis, focuses on the early stages of the design process; the explorative phases before the constrains of realisation start to narrow down the options. A central aspect of creative design computing is the generative potential in digital technology. - Human creativity of all kinds and in all variations: individual, social, cultural. - The design media: the design concepts, tools and technologies that are available (from pencil to computational photorealism, complex simulations and emergence).
