LO3:Computational Fabrication

The project that I find inspiring is Jeremy Ficca’s: Fabricating Customization Seminar;

This is a very interesting project that associates robotic research and AI with architecture design. Through coding and generating patterns, we can cut out patterns on paper or other materials that helps us build special shapes that we want. This is helpful in generating facades and textures in Architecture design.
I think the algorithm behind the project is to first generating random patterns and shapes through different functions and programs, controlling the size of the patterns and some parametric calculation process. Then with the help of robots and laser cutters, these programs could be successfully transformed into pieces of shapes ready for use. Also the programs calculate which piece fits in which position, so that people can put these pieces together and form a complete design.
