Algae cloud roof...
This is the first in a series of videos showing some of the Grasshopper tools I am using to develop an algae cloud roof supported by an adjustable tensegrity structure
Sketching Script for Grasshopper This a box "drawn" by grasshopper. It arrays lines on the surfaces of the box (or any surfaces) based on a light angle. If you 2d draw the box and the lines and erase the box you are left with the sketch. Download the script here: http://sites.google.com/a/zesks.com/www/walter/grasshopper-scripting/sketchingscript.ghx?attredirects=0 (or at the bottom of the page)
This is a panel generating script I created for a Fabrication Workshop at RISD run by Jonas Hauptman
Here is a screen shot from the surface panel generator. This creates developable panels with construction tabs from a surface. The panel sizes can vary to increase the articulation of the surface where needed. It allows you to precisely control the gaps between panels to account for material thickness You can download the script here: http://sites.google.com/a/zesks.com/www/walter/grasshopper-scripting/panelscriptwithconstructiontabs.ghx?attredirects=0

Structural Grids generated from floor plates with a grasshopper script.
Smart boxes in Rhino. The larger boxes are aware of smaller boxes close to them and report distances. The also notify how many smaller boxes are within them.

This is a two wythe brick wall that exhibits void patterns from a common 2d cellular automata. The pattern is generated using grasshopper and a VB component originally modified from the Game of Life script written by Baldino on the Grasshopper Wiki. This script creates a self supporting wall with rowlocks spanning the two wythes at the edges of the voids. (Check out the attached script)
Here is a video of a hyperbolic saddle generating script
This is an image of a 3d structure based on the classic life algorithm. The grasshopper script is based on the script written by "baldino" and posted to the grasshopper wiki. It uses his VB component to run the life simulation.
Image of the multi-hypar script which creates an adjustable hyperbolic surface with varying degrees of curvature.
(see attached link)
