Computational Logic:

Select curve Select triangle

Divide curve into segments Create and orient planes at each division point Array triangles along curve based on segments & planes

Isolate alternating triangles into separate lists

Align the orientation plane horizontally along the axis for the slide & climb zones

Isolate the climb, explore and slide zones Set a max and min for the scale size and rotation angle

Adjust the size and rotation of the triangles

Separate consecutive triangles into two lists Decompose triangles into edges, vertices and faces

Merge the vertices that will be connected into a list Draw a polyline connecting the vertices Explode the polyline and organize the lines into lists according to index

Merge all triangle edges and connections into a list Scale the lines down with the midpoint as the origin Pipe the list of curves

Merge all lines that converge at a vertex Find midpoints of each line Get the direction of the line Redraw the line at a set size with the origin at the vertex Pipe the curves

Get centre point of triangles Draw a line from the centre point of a triangle to the one following it Get the midpoint and direction of the line Draw a circle at the midpoint of the line with a radius related to the size of the triangle

Merge two vertices and the centre point of the triangle into a list Draw a curve based on these 3 points, using the midpoint as the second input Continue for each combination of vertices Join the curves into a closed curve

Loft the closed curve geometries with the circle geometries to create the fabric
