LO 2 – Generative Art

I really admire the 3D printed items made by the Nervous system for their choice of forms and their shapes, minimizing the use of materials and still managing to serve the function of the item while creating fancy patterns out of those hollowed materials.
Additionally, I also made several 3D models similar to the ones that the Nervous System made through using the grasshopper and rhinoceros program. I am pretty sure that most of the models of the ones shown on the Nervous System websites are made through making one or more Voronoi diagrams first then thicken and smoothen the lines to make it into a solid shape. One good aspect of using Grasshopper is that most variables of the 3D models are configurable, making each design can have an infinite amount of iterations.
I think the creator wanted to create something in between visibility and invisibility through the hollowed shapes using the mathematical methods to minimize visible parts of each item it creates while still working as an object without those holes.
