Cellular Automaton in Grasshopper: The Game of Life. Video.

We played with Cellular automata and implemented “The Game of Life” in Grasshopper.

There is a Timer which updates the cellular automata. In result the system of cells evolves. Each cell is visualized as a subsurface on a specified parent surface.

render:

We've used custom C# components which do the job.

Video and info about the… Continue

Normal Flipping in Grasshopper

Hi Folks,

I've been having some problems with a valid closed polysurface that has all surface normals oriented correctly in Rhino (used the Direction command). However, when I work with it in Grasshopper, it appears that half of the surfaces are now flipped (normals now pointing to the inside of the polysurface). I've tried to use a guide surface, I tried offsetting points along the normal to test for inclusion and then flip. I've even tried to flip normals manually by mutliplying… Continue

DuPont™ Corian® 3D - Math series

Few months ago me and Alessio Erioli have been involved as external design consultants by Corrado Tibaldi of DuPont Building Innovations, to design a new serie of Corian 3d panels inspired to the theories of famous mathematicians and from mathematical functions. The results are six panels: Fibonacci, Fourier, Gauss, Moiré, Phyllotaxis, Voronoi. These panels are an exploration of mathematical… Continue
