Material Property Exploration :
Experimenting with piano wire, the material’s most prominent qualities were investigated. The material was left to act by itself and react to itself, when faced with different conditions. The manner in which the material acted at different scales was studied : different thicknesses and to different forces in relation to its natural geometry. The result was an organic transformational component with infinite possibilities. A component that is not only made of the piano wire, but that also portrays several of the wire’s great qualities such as elasticity.
Keeping such qualities in mind, experiments with optimization of the component was undertaken, as to become part of a larger parametric system that is also never constant, but always changing in both form and density.
