Computer-Aided Design
Week 2

Assignment: model (draw, render, animate, simulate, ...) a possible final project, and post it on your class page

Programs:Rhinoceros, Photoshop

Lessons Learned: Play with mediums, layers, and blending in Photoshop and you can create wonderful scenes.




Providing a more "artful" approach to data gathering; the machine will provide a visualization of the environmental interactions over a given amount of time. As technology progresses we are removed further and further from the existing environmental conditions that we exist within. Ultimately through my project I hope to facilitate a better relationship between environment and space.









update 2.0


After exploring the possibility of creating a digital data drawing machine, I found the idea of manipulating a spatial form inside a gallery more rewarding. What is at play in the scenario is a data gathering apparatus and a resultant form mechanically orchestrated to shift and stir in response to ecological fluctuations. While the ideology that was working throughout the 1.0 version seemed successful, bridging the gap between environments in a more real-time digital interaction through mechanical intervention ultimately proves to be more valuable experiment.
