Dear David

I saw a video on your blog that intrigating me.

It's about Surface Distribution.

A friend of mine asked me if it's possible to calculate the paneling of an organic Srf ( let's say kind of half of a potatoe) with equilateral triangles in a geodesic way which is different from what paneling scripts in rhino when we consider surface domains that are concentrics.
He wants connected equilateral 3D triangles that may change in sizes but every  sides must stay equal.

He is looking for something near what I see on your video.

 

Do you think it's possible to do that in GH?

I can send you a picture of desired result if you're interested.

 

Thank you in advance for answering me

Best regards

RS

Hi Daniel,
I think you would like this podcast a lot if you don't already know it:

"Incidentally, on a related note - I remember seeing several years ago a book of Nervi's writings translated into English which had few pages at the end where he talked briefly about mutually perpendicular systems of curved lines and why they are interesting, along with some of his hand sketches of a few such systems. I've not been able to track the book down since. Can anyone give me a title ? ."

Very interesting Daniel, any luck with tracking down a title for this writing yet?

regards,

Hi Daniel! For the Kangaroo, do you have any plans for doing inflated shapes? It would be cool!
I guess it would be interesting to have both stretchy and rigid materials. I made a hands-on test once: http://www.omkrets.se/inflated/ It's a plastic bag, which means it's not stretching, but it will wrinkle and thus get double curved.
Here are some examples of inflated shapes that stretch: http://farm4.static.flickr.com /3288/3153404777_eea3e7b0d5.jpg (Swedish artist Lars Englund)
What do you think?

Hi, Daniel i want to create a geodesic dome but i have no clue how to strat. i found a topic where you showed your dome but definition doesnt work on my grasshopper. can you send me a picture of this definition?

Thanks in advance

Hi Daniel, I think I've got a question which is really suitable for you: Do you know if it's possible to generate a Costa Minimal Surface in Grasshopper? I had a look at the function with a mathematician-friend, but he told me it was involving complex numbers (weierstrass function) and grashopper propably can't calculate this. Any ideas?

Hi Daniel,

It would be great if you posted a few gallery entries with some links to posts on your amazing blog. It would great if more people knew about it.

Thanks,

- Bob
