problem later) to fit more shapes that are otherwise won't fit in.
On the example below horizontal rectangle couldn't fit in but its rotated analog could and thus was placed in.
Later, when placed shapes are used to generate frames, because of this rotation, the position of the starting points changes and because of the approach I use to generate the frames some angle values are attached to the wrong corners, this brakes the frame shape and looks like this (on the left the frame of sick shape and on the right the frame of the healthy shape):
Again, this happens because the angle values are assigned to the specific corners (points) and previously rotated shapes get these all messed up:
Easy fix, don't rotate the shapes, problem is, I've already baked a good number of them for later use. I'd like to avoid regeneration because it takes a lot of time and without rotation I constrict the algorithm even more.
Better fix, use a different approach, this is where I'd like to hear suggestions and kicks in a right direction. Please take a look at my definition. It works but I have a feeling like giving an amputee a job of sweeping the floor.

ns. but first allow me to explain what i'm trying to do: i have a serial device i want to talk to, but i have to do it using some sort of handshaking. for instance, when i send a command/data, i need to wait for an appropriate response before sending another. i have used andy payne's general serial components from firefly, but i don't think they'll work for what i want to do, and in general, i want to know how to do this from scratch. i'm using the pyserial library to do the comm, and i can get it to work within one script. here's an example of a working (mostly) port open/close script (x=input param for baud, y=input param for port name, z=boolean input param for open/close):
import serialmyPort=serial.Serial()myPort.baudrate = xmyPort.port = yif z == True: try: myPort.open() except: print "Something went wrong. Cannot open port." if myPort.isOpen() == True: print myPort.name + " is open" if z != True: try: myPort.close() except: print "Something went wrong. Cannot close port." if myPort.isOpen != True: print myPort.name + " is closed"
this all works well and good. here are my questions:
1) I can open the port and then close it. however, if i try to re-open it, i get an access denied error. it seems rhino is holding the port open, as i have to re-start rhino to get it working again. i read through the discussions and didn't see any definitive answers to this problem. any advice?
2) I'd like to share this port with other components (or at least break up the functions of opening/closing the port and read/write, not unlike how the firefly components are organized), but i have no idea how to share an object instance between components. i did see that there is a sticky dict and tried to add myPort to it, but i kept getting errors in the other component when i try to use the object's methods. for instance:
Component 1 Script:
import serial
import scriptcontext
myPort=serial.Serial("COM4", 9600)
scriptcontext.sticky['myPort']=myPort
Component 2 Script:
import serial
import scriptcontext
myPort=scriptcontext.sticky['myPort']
print myPort.read()
but i get messages like:
Runtime error (MissingMemberException): 'Serial' object has no attribute '_port_handle'
any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!

io, alle ore 19:30 presso la Mediateca MARTE di Cava de’ Tirreni (Sa), la lecture magistralis dell’arch. Walter Nicolino dal titolo “Augmented visions / Responsive spaces”, un viaggio culturale che, attraversando gli studi progettuali a diverse scale condotti tra la sede torinese e il centro ricerca di Boston, mette in luce una attitudine nell’indagare e nel dar forma alle interazioni tra le persone, gli oggetti e gli spazi, al fine di fornire possibili risposte alle nuove istanze poste dalla rivoluzione digitale.
In apertura i saluti istituzionali del sindaco Marco Galdi, mentre a introdurre la lecture l’arch. Amleto Picerno, promotore del Mediterranean FabLab di Cava de’ Tirreni e tutor della Summer School digitalMed, il laboratorio progettuale che da quattro anni a questa parte, indaga temi, pratiche e tecniche dell’attuale panorama architettonico internazionale. È la smart city al centro della IV edizione di Summer School Digitalmed 2013, che si svolge a Salerno dal 22 al 28 luglio con l’obiettivo di creare un sistema di relazioni e di interazioni continue tra la città, le persone e l’ambiente in cui queste si rapportano in un continuo scambio di informazioni.
Ad esprimere la critic ai prototipi di progetto che emergeranno dal workshop digitalMed, sarà proprio Walter Nicolino, architetto di spicco del panorama italiano, coinvolto in numerosi progetti di ricerca al Senseable City Lab del MIT di Boston, insieme all’arch. Carlo Ratti con cui è fondatore e socio dello studio torinese CARLORATTIASSOCIATI.
Il 26 luglio lo space 1.0 della Mediateca MARTE di Cava de’ Tirreni si fa, dunque, arena d’avanguardia per un interessante dibattito durante il quale, a proposito della Summer School digitalMed, si ragionerà anche sul modo in cui le tecnologie digitali influenzano l’architettura.
«Da qualche tempo a questa parte possiamo scegliere se orientarci alla perfezione tramite navigatori GPS o perderci come sognanti flâneur metropolitani; possiamo associare in un batter d'occhio infiniti layers di dati a un luogo, oppure contemplarne in silenzio il paesaggio; possiamo anticipare la realtà con sofisticate rappresentazioni virtuali, oppure esercitarci in giocose autocostruzioni partecipate.
Possiamo avere l'una e l'altra cosa: non si tratta di una scelta tra il mondo reale e quello virtuale, come predetto da parte della letteratura agli albori dell’era digitale, ma si tratta di capire come il nostro ambiente costruito e gli spazi in cui viviamo stiano imparando a parlare un nuovo linguaggio e ad interagire in modo sempre maggiore con le persone - afferma Walter Nicolino che parafrasando Le Corbusier “La civilisation digitale cherche et trouvera son expression architecturale”, sottolinea l’importanza di integrare le nuove tecnologie e radici locali senza perdere la visione e la dimensione umana della città: All’architettura è richiesta una revisione dei propri strumenti per creare spazi flessibili, inclusivi, in grado di adattarsi ai nuovi modi di vivere e lavorare e di rispondere in modo interattivo alle nostre esigenze».

ppresentazione di modelli per l’architettura ed il design, verso un apprendimento d' alto livello delle tecniche di modellazione parametrica 3D.
Il corso si svolgerà nei seguenti giorni:
Sabato 19/10 dalle 10.00 alle 19.00
Domenica 20/10 dalle 10.00 alle 19.00
Scadenza preiscrizione: 16/10
Contenuti
Durante questo corso, attraverso l' uso di tecniche avanzate di modellazione Nurbs,
si potranno costruire modelli tridimensionali complessi che permetteranno di comprendere le tematiche legate alle forme complesse dell’architettura.
Particolare attenzione verrà data allo studio delle superfici a doppia curvatura, alle superfici rigate e alle superfici sviluppabili, quest’ultime adatte alla creazione di manufatti rivolti alla produzione. Allo studio delle superfici sarà affiancata la logica della loro tassellazione, quindi il passaggio da entità continue ad entità discrete, indagandone il valore attraverso esercitazioni pratiche.
Per comprendere meglio le finalità pratiche della tassellazione verrà adoperata una plug-in integrativa specifica per questo tipo di operazione: Paneling Tools. Le lezioni pratiche saranno arricchite da brevi comunicazioni teoriche utili a perseguire l’obiettivo della costruzione di modelli complessi. Sintesi programma
Costruzione di superfici free-form facilmente editabili attraverso tecniche di sculpting ed una gabbia adeguata di punti di controllo;
Presentazione e spiegazione delle superfici a doppia curvatura, rigate, sviluppabili e loro pannellizzazione attraverso elementi lineari o tasselli piani;
Studio della tassellazione attraverso la plug-in Paneling Tools per lo sviluppo di tasselli tridimensionali complessi;
Modellazione di un'architettura complessa, costruita avvalendosi della anche della tecnica del morphing.

creating the structural frame, finding the endpoints, linking these endpoints with curves and afterwards lofting the surfaces between the curves.
The results were quite nice, however, the procedure is very time consuming and inefficient. There is just too much copy-pasting involved.
(see attached file: "Old Attempts.zip" )
Mesh relaxation:
I have later on used Daniel Piker's tutorials on Mesh Relaxation and realized that this might be the way to go.
The link to these online tutorials on wewanttolearn.net is:
https://wewanttolearn.wordpress.com/2011/10/22/mesh-relaxation-kangaroo-tutorial/
His tutorials, however, only deal with mesh boxes which are ideal cubes. He then joins them together in various directions, but it is under 90 degrees angle.
( see attached file: "Daniel Pikers Examples" )
What I would like to achieve:
I want my bridges to go in all directions and angles, not just under 90 degree angle.
Ideally I would like to make a square (polygon) follow a curve (which moves in all axis) at certain number of division points. I would then loft these squares into a mesh and use that shape as a mesh box. I would later use this mesh box and relax it the same way as Daniel Piker used the cubes in his tutorial. The anchor points are only the vertices of the squares which create the lofted mesh box.
( see attached file: "New Attempts" )
As you can see below this procedure works even if the curve is moving in all directions not only along xy axis. There are, however, many problems connected to it.
The problem:
Despite all the effort I cannot seem to come up with a design where I would be able to draw a random curve which would be the guideline for my mesh box and then apply this box to one definition in order to relax the mesh and create the shape that I want. Without this I am again forced into a lot of copy pasting as the final mesh box is made out of several sections.
Also is there any way I could make the final resulting mesh a bit smoother? Increasing the number of mesh faces is probably the only way, right?
Thank you guys so much for any potential help.
All best,
Luka

de geometries, which can easily be adapted to changing design intentions and requirements. The core concept of the software is that the brick unit is the basis for every action performed. Basically, a design is generated through drawing, placing and manipulating individual bricks. BrickDesignoffers different methods to manipulate the individual bricks in order to map patterns on a façade. These methods can be extended ad libitum through an open script interface, which gives access to a number of brick parameters.…

work with color to fit it into this logic (porous structure)?the range of colors: from white to yellow, orange, red. to blackis not so nice, saying, does not match to the design of the house.So there for it should only show the material what carries this pattern.So my question in yours case:i think that the picture of you must be thought as invert, so that it's become functional as well. if you thought this as invert,than you musst icrease the surface division,so that the rays of the sun can be disturbed to penetrate the house.that is a good the example:http://www.detail.de/inspiration/fuenf-hoefe-in-muenchen-100701.htmlin your case, the function of the patterns would get parametric significance. where more sunlight, consequently a denser pattern, and of course vice versa.therefore, the attractor should be the solar/sun system.http://digitalsubstance.wordpress.com/2011/12/07/facade-porosity-ad...What do you mean, i still see a version of you?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoqDYcCDOTgThanks…

Hi friends,
trying to get a cumulative sky image metric to run and encountered an issue with the image-based metrics component. It throws:
Runtime error (KeyNotFoundException): honeybee_materialLib Traceback: line 768, in main, "<string>" line 1442, in script
I guess this is some sort of setup issue on my end, or I messed up the definition? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Max
