I'm currently doing a degree in Design In Architecture at Sydney University where I'm creating a performative system which takes on board the opening and closing function of heart valves.
I'm looking at developing a complex canopy like surface with heart valve like holes with a reactor point to control the opening and closing of the heart valve like holes. The reactor point will symbolise the sun and when the reactor point is moving, I want the holes to narrow just like the system you've shown.
I'm thinking of using your system as inspiration as this clearly shows the function of a heart valve
Some questions I want to ask:
- Do you use Geco to study the environmental impacts of the systems you create?
- How did you create this system?
- What are the key parts of this system to make it workable?
- Is there anyway you have a file of the definiton so that I can look in depth?
