This component displays a grid of values on the canvas.

It receives a list of values and the amount of values in the U direction.

This uses the gradients of the [Gradient] component, allows you to change the interpolation (only for the display) and save the image (the number of values in U will be the width in…

During form-finding of funicular networks, dynamic weights that update per time-step relative to a local measure are interesting... not least because such systems often converge when intuition says they should explode.

For the case of a tensile spring network in 3 dimensions, the equilibrium result is funicular so long as the network is at most…

From virtuality model to reality for a maze bowl : 

After some encouragements in August 2016, I decided in December 2016 to made a real Maze Bowl similar to this one

Here is the steps I had to get through in order to make it for real. 

I began with a simple…

There's an updated version of Treesloth now available on Food4Rhino. There are a few enhancements in this incremental update.

Explode At Index is new, allowing you to explode a tree at a specified path index, grouping any deeper paths accordingly:…

Bevelled%20Text.gh

3D bevel font from rhino text(curve). requires Meshmachine and Weaverbird .

Just a little blatant self promotion :)

If you have a basic knowledge of working with C# scripts in Grasshopper but want to take it to the next level and start building your own GHAs, you may be interested in the webinar I'm teaching tomorrow for performance.network. We will go through the basics of plug-in development - the structure of the code, how to get data in and out of a component, and the debugging…

I am new to Ghpython.

This algorithm is to find local lowest points, which I find relatively hard just using grasshopper.
