DTAL is very pleased to announce a new workshop taking place at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism in Cluj during 17-20 May, which is very nicely timed with Neil Leach’s conference there (20 May). It all happens under the umberlla of the +/- Cluj Center of Architecture. Thanks to AStA Cluj for the invitation. [...]

Call them what you will, but there’s been a huge hype about them some time ago. Grasshopper’s scripting capabilites are now a huge super cool feature, especially if you’re coding in visual studio (c#) and then pasting the shit or making dlls. I did this some time ago when i suddenly realized that you can [...]

/sneak preview. Definition file (.ghx). Referenced assembly (.dll). Please note that the referenced assembly is based entirely on code from luvtechno.net.

Deprecated. Here’s the new version. More as a scripting experiment, when i was mucking about trying to make the delaunay triangulation work in grasshopper i somehow found the wonderfully complex qhull library which i promptly set to push and pull to get it to work with grasshopper. As advised on their website, the best way [...]

How about 60 points for real-time 3d voronoi manipulation in grasshopper? Here’s a screenshot: This isn’t a scam. Stay tuned for more free voronoi PrOn (and other qhull-enabled goodies.)

(right click save target as) Delaunay Triangulation in Rhino‘s Grasshopper plugin. It’s pretty straightforward. Just don’t input in the magic node duplicating points or everything will start blowing up. First one to make it output the voronoi diagram wins a candybar.

Out of popular demand, I have compiled a nice file detailing the possible uses of the Voronoi node, complete with the accompanying rhino file. Download. (60 kb .zip)

For those who really like to play with voronoi regions and stuff, here’s the final grasshopper definition file (right click, save target as – else you’ll get a ~250kb of useless xml in your browser window). The vcell component outputs now individual cells as closed polylines and closed nurbs curves. This is useful if you [...]

UPDATED HERE! Having some more haha with the previous grashopper sketch, this time working on curves. This is intended in some sort of terrain manipulation for the ongoing project – too bad things started shaping like some sort of electrical field/strange attractor (it has nothing to do with the above, the similarity is purely formal). [...]

UPDATED HERE! Multiple Attractors working in Rhino’s Grasshopper, all handled in a nice VBScript Component. Works with quite anything (initially deisgned for surfaces). Download the definition file. Have fun with it. I still didn’t have the time to put this to a proper, nicely rendered use and it’s been almost a month now since it’s [...]

Some nice images: Here’s the link to download the grasshopper .wrm file.

SPRscrpts for Rhino is out now. Grab it while it’s fresh (and buggy). Sorry for the huge delay.

RELEASED! SPRscrpts is coming (with documentation). It brings to your Rhino 4 SuperShapes, SphericalHarmonics, SuperTori and Shells. Below is an illustration of what it can do (that’s the shell script at work).
