MACHINES AND TOOLS
Generative-Parametric Forest created in Eclipse-Java and Rhino.
Generative-Parametric Forest
Load an image and depending on the brightness of the pixels, "trees" are created. The result is a generative and parametric "forest". The "trees" consist of nodes in different levels which are connected with edges with same length. Each tree is connected to the closest tree at the last level of nodes.
From Eclipse the file is exported in dxf format and imported in Rhino. There with rhinoscript all the lines are transformed into tubes and through user's input, connections are created in every node.
The connections are printed in 3D-printer. For the construction of the prototype and the final "forest" wooden sticks were used.
