blackspectacles David LeFevre's course is going to walk you through a number of ways to create and manipulate surfaces using Grasshopper and Rhino. We'll start by showing basic methodologies for creating surfaces. Then, we’ll create a simple Grasshopper definition that will illustrate the basic principles of relationship modeling. From there we’ll learn how to extract information from surfaces in order to create new geometries, we’ll learn how to sample an image to create parametric inputs, and finally, we’ll learn how to inform the selection of objects within arrays of multiple geometries.

Culling to create regular patterns – Example 1.4 While most contemporary design expression tends to avoid patterns like the one above, introducing regular rhythms into projects is still important, and can be done very easily using the “Cull” components in grasshopper. The English verb “cull” implies getting rid of things (such as livestock) in a systematic manner. This is exactly what these components do. You give grasshopper a set of items, and then get rid of some of them using components. There are a couple of these, but the two discussed in this exercise are “Cull Nth” and “Cull Pattern” There are basically two steps to this simple exercise. 3D Printing Basics Table of contents: 1. What is 3D printing?

Working with Mesh Geometry 1.6.6 Working with Mesh Geometry In this section, we will work through an exercise file for producing a complete mesh solid. By the end of this exercise, we will have a dynamic definition to produce custom vases that can be 3D printed. Example files that accompany this section: Download Tutorial 8 - Random Points On Surface Introduction The Result of this tutorial A nice possible option in Grasshopper is to use a random generator to add randomness to your design. In this tutorial we will create a grid on a Rhino surface and then randomly pick a predefined number of grid points.
