131001 – Sonic Touch 2.0

Sound device, based on the drawdio project.

This project was developed together with Carolina Pino and Cristóbal Valenzuela.

The device was fabricated in a Laser Cutter (epilog 36xt) and a vynil cutter (roland camm servo).

synthetic natures website is online, take a look at this fantastic installation!!!!

 

please visit http://syntheticnatures.wordpress.com to see details and of course, interact with the installation!!!

RSS now according to a curve proximity. a simple python script.

 

 

100307_Master Thesis _ part _4

The last part of the thesis. enjoy.

100307_Master Thesis _ part _3

The Third part. «español» only… again , im open to visit your countries for presentations, workshops, etc etc, hahaha.

091105_WF foam + celullar automata- (wip wip wip!!!)

This is the next step in Weaire phelam studies. a cellular automata for this space filling structure. its buggy as hell. but im working my ass off. it was done in rhinoscript of course!!!.

091105 – FOAMY STUFF – weaire phelam structures (SOOOOOO WIP)

This is really WIP, this are my early test of space filling structures. this is the famous weaire phelam.it´s based in two figures, a dodecahedron (12 sides) and a tetrakaidecahedron (14 sides). some images of the early test. the purpouse… don´t have a tiny clue….

the final work will be posted soon…. as soon as i finish and debug the code. (and of course there will be a  show me the code!!post)

090731- SHOW ME THE CODE!!!-(RVB) – automatic unroll

This is another fabrication tool that i wrote almost two years ago for my thesis. So… let´s show the code!!!!

This tool was developed for the automated process of unrolling planar surfaces for fabrication via laser cut or cnc cut. It allows the user to select the surfaces of the model (or polysrf) and make an array of contours with an ID, in the model and the array (for further assembly help). I wrote it for the ribber tool, and added to the MAB FPS and exatect structure scripts.

It´s a very simple, but powerfull tool ,i hope you use it , and again , do whatever the f#$#cK u want. but remember to name the real author of the script.

Video showing the script running, (in spanish).

stay tuned for more SHOW ME THE CODE!!! in escripto…

090730 -SHOW ME THE CODE!!!! (RVB) – attractor function

OK, lets show the code!!!..

Function esfera (attr,k,mval,pa,pb,pc,pd,scale,i)

	Dim face
	Dim center
	Dim dist
	Dim esf
	Dim color
	face= rhino.addsrfpt (array(pa,pb,pc,pd))
	center= rhino.SurfaceAreaCentroid(face)

	ReDim dist (ubound(attr))
	Dim ptatr():ReDim ptatr (ubound(attr))

	For k=0 To ubound(attr)
		ptatr(k)= rhino.pointcoordinates(attr(k))
		dist(k)=rhino.Distance(ptatr(k),center(0))
	Next

	mval= rhino.min (dist)
	rhino.Print mval
	esf= rhino.AddSphere (center(0),(mval/scale))
	rhino.ObjectColor esf,rgb(255,i+(mval*5),133)
	rhino.ObjectColor face,rgb(255,i+(mval*5),133)

End Function

According to the recently attactor «fashion/porn» in the digital age (mainly grasshopper), i´m showing one of my first scripts in rhinoscript (2006). it’s an attractor function. Use, do wathever the f#$K!! you want with this function.

this was the core of my MAB-FPS code (https://escripto.wordpress.com/2008/07/01/080630_mab-fps-multi-attractor-based-flat-panel-skin/), a nice script for my thesis.

090717-playing with the power of python (MAYA)

Yesterday i started to play some hours with mel , but i remembered the recomendations of rodrigo culagovski (www.culagovski.net – http://www.parametrica.org) about the benefits and advantages of python. So, i stopped with mel and put my hands into python.
