This template is a fantastic way to highlight the back of the body as an artefact for Cosmic Armour. It could be used as a promotion tool due to it’s bold and rigid structure. The aim of the project is to promote a fluidity towards engagement with care. More points will be added to emphasise the visual and psychedelic effects of the piece.
troubleshooting Adding more points to the definition affects the 3D printing quality in relation to the thickness of the filament. Also, if more points are added closer to each other the divisions of each point does not have space to spread out between the next cell division so the legs will likely merge when closer together. The final Grasshopper parameters: • • •
Radius - 6.0 Charge - 3.00 Decay - 5
• Count - 26 • Steps - 220 • Accuracy - 0.5 • Thickness spiders - 0.600 • Thickness cells - 0.600 • Finalising the elements of the definition is quite complex because all the components need to be considered in accordance with the others for the definition to work. For example, changing the field charge disrupts the whole definition so it cannot be baked and worked on further. The key components in this definition:
