Week 1

Lofting exploration

This is my first exercise with Grasshopper which I find it a very convenient tool when you have mastered it as this plug-in records every change you make and enable us to monitor different results and create a closer proximity to our intentions. The followings are my experiment of Grasshopper, mainly the LOFTING function. Change to different points of the lofted surface as well as different lofting options enable us to try out different results.

Understanding Geometry


Transformation and Intersections

Week 2

By inserting and experimenting different parameters into the algorithm, I am able to obtain different and interesting results. By thinking mathematically and understanding the way the data flow, I am able to explore even further through trial and error.

Controlling Algorithm

From here on, it is starting to get slightly vague and multiple review is required to understand the entire process.I believe through practice, I am able to further understand the process of how data flow. In this flow, I am trying to create a gridshell as suggested in the tutorials. By adjusting different numerical data in the algorithm, it is clear to see different gridshells on the surface of the object.

Week 3

Non valid algorithms will give unexpected result or even no results which can be frustrating at some point but through different experimentation and adaptation, problems can be solved at ease.
