This semester was a ride. Grasshopper was a challenge because it takes me awhile to get used to the fussiness of it but I also enjoyed it because it makes creating variations of a design easier and faster. Another challenge was learning the 3D clay printer, I haven't gotten to use it which is sad but hopefully students have access learning more of it once this commotion has stopped. In my opinion, I think the biggest success I had this semester was being able to work and collaborate with other people. I was able to talk to few of my colleagues and learned from them. 

 I didn't enjoy the plaster mold project but it is really handy, with what I have learned during those weeks I will apply in making objects I could sell. I have been into designing toys lately and with the plaster mold method, I could manufacture them with some help from the school equipments.

eye spy with my little i, a castle that can't reach the skeye and a lady who barely remembers how to use Rhino

I do remember the basics of Rhino but do I remember ALL of the basics? Nope. The idea behind my castle was an eye. First thing I did was drawing a shape of an eye using "Control Point Curve" and extruded it to which it became the outer wall of the castle. I wanted to make this outer wall thicker but I don't remember how and I wasn't in the Wednesday help time. This castle has 3 walls... ...unnecessary walls. For the inner wall, I used "Torus" in order for the wall to have density. I wasn't really thinking about this and I could've used "Circle", extruded the curve and then un-"capped" it so it would look more like a wall like what I did with the actual castle. But people make mistakes and I just realized it while I'm making this blog. This inner wall has a parabola-ish shaped gate. I used the "Cube" then "Fillet" the edges and used "Cylinders" to complete the look. Now, for...

Digital Rendering

Our topic for this week was paper craft. I am familiar with this type of art because I am a fan of modular origami. Modular origami is when you combine multiple geometric units formed from multiple sheets of paper to form polygons or polyhedra.  For this week's assignment, students were told to do a research of paper craft artists who inspire them. I have more than one artist that gives me inspiration on a design I planned to make. They are: John Edmark  Raya Sader Bujana Mathew Shlian Hari and Deepti Junji Ito Couple of these artists are not paper craft artists but because of them, I have the drive to create what I want. Here are some of their works. John Edmark  Raya Sader Bujana Mathew Shlian  Hari and Deepti Junji Ito Raya Sader Bujana , Hari and Deepti has the layering style that I am interested in. Their paper craft masterpieces gives off a wonderful three dimensional feel. Bujana's olympic figures were a pro...

Mandalas or Scabs (WARNING: MIGHT BE GROSS. PREPARE PUKE BUCKET)

On my previous post, I played around with the Polar Array tool in Grasshopper and got this as a result. For this week, we'll be using arrays to create a 2D parametric design. From what I have seen in other students' blogs, most of them looked like mandalas but when I looked it up on Google for some examples, most of them reminds me of scabs.  Awesome Design by Jean  Mandala I found on Google Parametric design I found on Google Scabs  So my question for myself is: "Mandalas or Scabs?" Before I answer myself that question, I looked around Youtube to see any videos about this topic, so  here's the tutorial I used for review. I changed some things from the tutorial like the end point for the line. Instead of doing what he did, I used another polar array for the end line. Results? Awesome parametric designs. There were new things I learned on this tutorial, like using Maelstrom and Bezier Span. These desi...
