    wow , very nice.. would you share the definition? i`m need shadid.

    Great work!  Do you think it would be possible to apply that logic to a surface?  Maybe with attractor points as well?  I'm interested in creating something like the facade on the Messe Basel New Hall: http://www.archdaily.com/377609/messe-basel-new-hall-herzog-and-de-...

    I've been messing around with the tutorial on morphogenesism.com for strip morphologies, but do you have any other suggestions on where to start?  I'm not completely sure how to go about it.  Thanks!

    ah yes, surface on the Messe Basel New Hall is using a similar concept. Though obviously they didn't cut slot in a flat surface then push and pull it into that form.

    If I were to approach that exercise, I would make a single component, either in the 'X' or the 'O' form. Then host an array of those components on a surface and deform the component based on the curvature or slope of the surface. It may be as simple as the height of the component is determined by the slope.

    That exterior portion 'expands' more where the surface deviates from vertical.

     

    p.s. I'm not as excited to share my definition as I am to discuss the concepts behind it. Everyone builds definitions differently or with a subtle twist. I like to hear how others would approach something like this. I experimented with several approaches; trying to draw arcs and array them or finding sub curves of the concentric rings or creating circles at every gap and using those to trim the rings...
