algorithmic modeling for Rhino

how to do flow along surface?

Hi everyone,

I follow a tutorial to get a random surface pattern as you can see.
How do I apply this pattern to the curve shape I want? either Grasshopper or Rhino?

I tried flow along surface but does not do well.

I put 3 curve surface there. No.3 is what i want to apply the pattern on. Since its a trimmed surface, some function cannot do. No.1 is a complete surface.

It would be really great if someone can help.

an amater way of doing it :)
you can always in simple and not so precise way project curves to the surface and then split surface with new curves along the surface and extrude or offset and thats it.

hope it helps :)

no problem, this should be done in grasshopper so that it has parametric possibilities to change shapes and sizes of holes but that is not easy to accomplish i guess.
