The aim of this assignment will be to create an live-interactive installation using forces as parameters using Kangaroo as main engine. The main goal will be to build a simple interface where the user can “play” with inputs such as attractors, sliders, functions and time to transform an object in space.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My main challenge is to recreate this natural gravity models in an inspirational attemp to success this shapes. The inspirations of my models comes from two very famous architects, one legendary Antoni Gaudi whose building has been present in our history for a long time and Marc Forne’s one whose buildings has become a new way of thinking in digital and new technologies constructions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After creating a mesh with the circular values that I wanted and adding to a list all the sliders of the Grasshopper code. I have generated a lot of different kinds of transfromations whose values and shapes are quite different. Now, I will show you all of them and adding the changes of each one;
