As I diverge my attention from machine knitting towards using the pen plotter, I hope that the change in medium and fabrication process will aid me in uncovering more about my approach in generative making. Thus far in  my journey of self-inquiry, I identified that I find interest in generating composition and form by engaging with the forces in a piece's environment:<\/em>\r\n\r\nI propose that I use multi-agent particle systems to create fibrous forms and complex, line compositions. I aim to cultivate visually complex compositions by attributing various behaviors to autonomous agents and endowing the agent's environment with physical properties. Leaving trails behind, the particle agents will then create records of their positions, and thus, visual arrangements will emerge as the trails characterizes how the agents are behaving in digital space.\r\n\r\nThis investigations challenges me to develop mastery in controlling particle agents, whereas I initially aim to plot more \"primitive forms\", then graduate onto farming more complex forms using compound techniques and agent behavior. \r\n<\/pre>\n<pre><strong>Software<\/strong> \r\nRhino\/Grasshopper \r\n  - Culebra 2.0 \r\n  - Heteroptera \r\n\r\n<strong>Hardware<\/strong>\r\nLarge Format AxiDraw\r\n<\/pre>\n<pre><strong>Inspiration\r\n\r\n<\/strong>\r\ngsapp\r\n(n)certainties | The battle of impermanency (opus 5.2) Fran\u00e7ois Roche from R&amp;Sie(n) with Assistant-Partner : Ezio Blasetti &amp; Assistant : Miranda R\u00f6mer\r\n\r\nstudents : Jennifer Chang &amp; Belen Gandara | Farzin Lotfi-Jam &amp; Juan Francisco Saldarriaga | Hualin Shi &amp; Luis Casanovas | Paraskeyi Fanou &amp; Nathan Hoofnagle | Helen Levin &amp; Jen Wood | Mengyi Fan &amp; Joseph Justus\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"mfp-img\" src=\"https:\/\/aws1.discourse-cdn.com\/mcneel\/original\/3X\/b\/7\/b7f0001e400ab1294055914be4d50147429e82d8.jpg\" alt=\"5-evolution-021\" width=\"324\" height=\"459\" \/>\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/payload.cargocollective.com\/1\/2\/65604\/2619174\/_0002_810.jpg\" width=\"324\" height=\"180\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" data-mid=\"13253798\" data-title=\"810 \u2014 810 \u00d7 450\" data-wp-editing=\"1\" \/><\/pre>\n<pre><strong>Initial Sketches\r\n<\/strong>\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2009\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-360x480.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-360x480.jpg 360w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-1200x1600.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67143169-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 85vw, 360px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2010\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-360x480.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-360x480.jpg 360w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-1200x1600.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-428\/f2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/image_67190529-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 85vw, 360px\" \/>\r\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proposal &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.
