In this project, I plan to create a vase with a strong sense of design and have initially decided to use a spiral design. Currently, four versions have been produced.
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.
This is a hollow vase, and I want its surface to look full of design. In fact, I initially planned to create panels through a graphic, but various issues arose, such as the deformation that occurred when they were combined. The most important issue was that they were surprisingly ugly. So I won't show it. Later, in my spare time, I discovered a very cool thing online, which is to use pull points to influence graphics. So I used Voronoi to create irregular polygons Each polygon is scaled with its own center point, but still requires a coefficient to do so, so I set this coefficient to the value output by the Pull point. The distance output by the Pull point is the shortest distance value from all points to the curve. The farther away the polygon is from the curve, the larger the distance value, and the smaller the scale factor. So I need a control coefficient, and I used multiplication to generate a new scaling coefficient. But there is still a problem with the scaling factor being ...
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.
