Task 01 - Lofting Curves
Lofting 2 curves
Lofting 3 curves
ALGORITHMIC JOURNAL 4 CONCEPTUALISATION
Lofting 4 curves; I found this exercise the most interesting as I could create the most complex shapes and surfaces. My final results were changed each time by moving control points manually. I liked the freedom that came with doing this manually.

Task 02 - Triangulation Algorithims
Experimenting with hexagonal grids and the delaunay edges component.
Metaball, voronoi and delaunay edges components
I altered the number of points in the delaunay edges component, thus changing the number of triangulation shapes.
An unsuccessful of populating a geometry with points and then using the delaunay edges component.

Exploring populating a 3D object and then using the voroni component.
I manually altered these 3D cubes by deleting various elements . Although the elements appear random, you are able to isolate each using notepads in the Grasshopper window, I found this very interesting.

Task 03 - Transforming Tools
Exploration of dividing curves and creating arcs. This could be helpful for creating interesting surfaces and then altering them.
Example of offesting curves. Perhaps quicker than doing it manually in Rhino but I’m unsure. This function should be explored better by myself in the future.

Difficulty using meshes and the box-morph tool.
Using the box-morph tool and the voronoi 2D component.
Using the box-morph tool to create a surface using a circular mesh. I’m unsure about the result of this, it seems clumsy but the linework and patterns made are interesting.

Task 04 - Patterning Tools
I was able to, using list tools and components, easily order and then join various arcs and curves to loft them.
Grouping, using panels (to remind myself of things later).

This is my loft of 3 curves, I was able to join various different points using patterning and shifting list components.
Exploring using metaball on these points. A new way to create points - divide a surface into points.

Exploring the voronoi component (like the tutorial) however I decided to not go further as I have explored voronoi a lot so far.
Jittering poitns did not work for me.
Attempts at culling patern list.
