Part B Expression of Interest II: Design Approach
Starting with a similar geometry to the tessellation in articulated tensions, we tried produce various iterations of the squarebased shape, and applied it to grid-based surfaces. To add to the effect of the tessellation, we transformed the basic tessellation into a trianugalted pyramid, conencted to a triangulated mesh. Then, by using control points and attrator points, developed interseting surfaces. Using the Weaverbird Stellate component, we were able to easily control the hight of the 3d tessellation, however founf that the creating our own algorithms for the tessellation gave us more control over the effects. Using other applications in Kangaroo, we used the Shrinkwrap component to create unusula forms based around simple geometry. This could then be controled by changing the accuracy of the shrinkwrap and size of mesh faces. By changing the shrinkwrapped meshes in the Kangaroo Springs form Lines component, we were able to create interesting and unexpected geometrical forms. 11
