igned by this software may be terrible, this is how the future is being shaped, so an understanding of the technology is important.

-Projects are due May 8th at the WAAC Final Gallery (I think at 5:30 PM). You will have your board(s) pinned up and your physical model complete underneath. The location is still being worked out, so I will let you know when I know. After the physical submission, a digital submission is required as well. There should be at minimum -
A board with the discussed drawings and images below, named LastName_FirstName_FinalProject.pdf
A photo of your physical model (if not included on the board), named
LastName_FirstName_FinalModel.pdf.
These should be posted on the dropbox sometime before the last day of the semester. Your project will not be graded if you do not physically submit on May 8th and digitally submit sometime before the semester is over.
-Project brief is below
Project Brief: Up until now, you have been using grasshopper to develop, analyze, and fabricate architectural ideas in a very controlled format. The final project is a chance to combine this knowledge with your own design intent and aspirations. The project will use specific deliverables to spur growth, but also allow for you, the designer, to do what you please within the following boundaries.
Requirements:
# open project# must be a design project # story of what you are designing and why you are using grasshopper - specific design intent# must have physical scale model # must have 24” x 36” board - made in Adobe InDesign or Photoshop # grasshopper definition image # 1 artistic rendering - any format - with scale figures # 5 iterations of your project must be presented # 1 diagram to visually describe your project # text describing project # process drawings - photos/sketches/models/other iterations# this is the bare minimum - to have an excellent project, one must go above and beyond these requirements# talk to me if you have out of the box ideas of presenting/ teams / etc...
That is all, there are no assignments due this week, just keep working on those projects. I am available for help during the week, just email or post in the forum. USE THE GRASSHOPPER FORUM IF YOU ARE STUCK. There are many people on here that are way smarter than I that can help you.
See you all next week!…
well!
Also works reliably in another app I have (Hydrostatics) to adjust 'Z-Offset' and re-establish buoyancy equilibrium.
I wasn't able to get it working inside a cluster due to the GH restriction against recursion, unfortunately, because that would be AWESOME!!! Instead, the code is sprawling and exposed...
Note the 'Feedback' input and 'Value' output in the white group (Inner Circle).
Cheers and Happy New Year!
P.S. Geometry internalized, no Rhino file needed.…

size sets the resolution of the blob(s) and smoothing comes after to have a smooth mesh describing your points.

well this post was unanswered with refresh, until i posted, when it turned out 5 minutes earlier Kim was there.…
console app into "Rhino\System\" directory the program runs fine. I've searched for days regarding the loading of dll's but to no avail. Could it be that the Rhino dll's are protected in the program files directory? The code is very simple, please take a look.
using Rhino.Geometry;using System;using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Text;namespace Rhino{ class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Point3d j = new Point3d(1, 1, 1); Point3d k = new Point3d(2, 2, 2); List<Point3d> list = new List<Point3d>(); list.Add(j); list.Add(k); Console.WriteLine(new List<Point3d>{j,k}); Point3d p = Point3d.Add(j, k); Console.WriteLine(Point3d.ArePointsCoplanar(list, 1.0)); Console.Read(); } }}

. Solution exception:Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=4.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
I assume it is related to how/where the components and related files were copied to the GH special folders.
Both Newtonsoft.Json.xml and PrairieDog.gha have been copied to the "Libraries" folder of GH.
Are there any other requirements in terms of where the Prairie Dog folder should be located and the app run from?
+1 for additional sliders
+1 for expressions
Thanks for your hard work.

ee. That said these things (masterminded by a certain David R) are not bad at all ... but if you write code that is "supposedly" transferable (kinda) to other CAD apps ... well ... I would strongly recommend the other classic nested C# collections.
2. The HLP method is one out of many: for instance for a better approximation of the required fitted plane we can use the divide Curve method etc etc.
3. GH components use (in most of cases) methods exposed in Rhino SDK > get the thingy and start digging into the rabbit hole. Of course David did some other components as well that use "less" classic SDK methods (if at all).
4. HLP is a classic approach to count the beans in nurbs curves. Of course I could use PolyCurves and recursive explosion blah, blah ... but here we are not after segments (at least at present time). On the other hand if that was a Faceted Dome (planar Polylines) ... well getting the nodes that way it could be an overkill (this means business for V2).
5. Mastermind some plane orientation policies in order to finish(?) the @$%@$ thing. For instance: Given Plane plane, define a Plane.WorldXY at plane.Origin and section these 2 > then get the cross product (sectionVector, plane.ZAxis) for the new orientedPlane Y axis etc etc (this presupposes that any plane Z axis points "outwards": use Dot Product and a center point as apex etc etc).…
(http://www.food4rhino.com/app/quelea-agent-based-design-grasshopper) take like 40 seconds when the toggle activates to go from one end of the ramp to another.
With proximity 3d i'm analyzing each instance the agents are closer than x units. In picture 3 we can see that in 212 instances the agent are closer than those x units.
Finally all the genes that controll the ramps are connected to the G of octopus component and one of the conflicting objectives connected to the O of octopus component is the number of instance quelea agents get close.
So the thing I need is to iterate the ramps controling the genes with octopus but activating the boolean toggle (quelea run) each time the ramps are modified so the agents take 40 seconds to perambulate the environment, analyze the instance they get close and let octopus iterate again searching for a optimized environment.

priety software). Think Kangaroo with RON 100 fuel (add some nitrous oxide).
Back to domes.
1. Obviously you know the free WinDome Bono thing...but anyway get it (code included).
2. As I said on another thread (http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/the-necessity-for-a-data-tree-manager) ... the big thing in AEC (because, for instance, nobody does domes for decoration/artistic stuff etc etc) is how to implement already designed things (see images above) within a smart stuff definition (or many).
3. Goes several steps beyond: these "breps" (to speak GH/Rhino language) are in most cases nested and some parts are "locked" for transformations some other not. That's the big thing when trying to outline real-life AEC solutions in the so called Smart applications. I think that this is not doable in Rhino since there's no way to edit (in place) a nested block.
4. Goes even further: for each custom made thing (truss nodes and the likes) ... there's a bill waiting. Meaning that the less customized a solution is (with regard industrial sourced existed parts) the more is possible for the client to sign the dotted line.
Best, Peter…
