We are excited to announce a new series of generative jigsaw puzzles featuring microscopic art! These laser-cut, computer generated jigsaws feature microscopic photographs of cells created by scientists. Neural networks, […]
Introducing Floraform, the latest generative design system from Nervous System. Floraform is inspired by the biomechanics of growing leaves and blooming flowers and explores the development of surfaces through differential […]
Last weekend we ventured to the Arnold Arboretum to view the blooming lilacs. Although the flowers were spectacular, it was actually a garbage can that ended up garnering our attention. […]
Here in Boston, we’ve been blanketed by a record-breaking 100+ inches of snow. It has been too cold for any of it to melt until a couple of days ago […]
Inside a bud, a flower’s petals lie in wait, a tight bundle of compressed tissue. When the conditions are right, they burst forth, blooming in an impressive display of geometry […]
I rendered this animation last night of one of my favorite floraform pieces we’ve generated so far. It exhibits an odd, spiraling, 5-form symmetry as it grows. This radial symmetry […]
For most, the word fungus evokes images of the gilled mushrooms that appear on our plates or pop up in suburban lawns. But, mushrooms are actually the tip of the […]
We have two major events coming up this month. The first is our solo exhibition titled “Growing Objects” at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at Stonybrook University, opening […]
We are working on a series of 3D zoetropes for our upcoming exhibit, “Growing Objects,” at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at SUNY Stonybrook. Each one will demonstrate […]
Finally, we have some progress to share on something we’ve been working on for a long time! This project focuses on the differential growth of surfaces and was inspired by […]
