After seeing the mechanics shown by the instructors, it reminded me of the "Dragon Dance", a traditional event that takes place every year in China during the New Year. This event is a project done by many people, just like the sticks that appear in this work, and each stick has a person underneath to manipulate the dragon's dance. https://youtu.be/Mwbne5EwPHU Here is a link to a video of the dragon dance 【第一次舞龙灯现状-哔哩哔哩】 https://b23.tv/uw02Suw I changed the shape of the sandwich to a circle according to my idea, making the structure inside look like a piston engine. This did help a little with the operation of the mechanism.
I think the biggest challenge this assignment has brought me is the challenge of English listening. In Grasshopper, most of the vocabulary is unfamiliar to me, so it is challenging to keep up with the pace in class. But this assignment also gave me a clearer understanding of Grasshopper's basic theory. I have been thinking for a long time about the design of this assignment, how to make the finished product look less strange or inexplicable when it undergoes deformation. In the end, I decided to make this glass cup.
