January 28


Today we presented our 3D models in the form of a PowerPoint presentation. We were required to show 5 interior and 5 exterior views of each model.

I'm posting only a few images per model to save space.

The network "sphere" model could be improved by removing a smaller sphere with BooleanDifference command to create an interior space. The views from the inside out through the fenestrations might look pretty cool. Also, the shadows and light rays that enter the interior spaces might be nice too. I'm going to try this tonite.



The rendering in Rhino is pretty straightforward. I need to find materials and begin a library. Color is working for now.


The second network model had some nice qualities but may be difficult to transfer to the laser cutter. There is no exterior boundary or volume.

The concepts to think about are layers, voids, mass and casting. Also, a visible and "believable" structure must be present. Another important aspect is kinetics and how a body moves throught the space, how it affects the space and how the space--in return--adapts to the body.



I have been thinking about trying to incorporate all three 3D models into one model. Maybe taking elements from each model and combining them into one unique model.
