Two version of matrix study were done. The first one was not posted here because it did not show how the shape is related to each other.
Instead of several changes at one time, the matrix shown here illustrates how the shape evolves from the previous one in a clear rule of transformation. No matter how the form changes, one can still recognize all the forms carry some same Gene. It is like the theory of Evolution by Darwin. It is like the transformation and evolution of animals' physical forms. There is a clear message of growth sequence behind the transformation phenonmenon.
Each line of forms are showing a sequence of changes of one branch from the whole. The branch is firstly stretched from the trunk. After that, various of changes like twist, bend or rotate start to occur as time goes on.
The difference on how the forms are created between the first version and the version shown here is that in the first attempt, transformation actions were put into the whole form, while in this version, only parts of the control points of the whole were manipulated to make changes for the branch.
Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see what a bit of rigor applied to an established object can yield.
The next step could be the physical relation between the precedent and the product, and how the liminal space between them tells the story of the objects' transformation.
I agree that is nice to be able to see subtle changes in the geometry from step to step and then to see the dramatic difference in the original and final product.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see that all of those youtube tutorials are paying off.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the previous post by Myers, the method of making reserved modifications to each successive form generated a lucrative result in this study.
