florescence ornata 2

31 x 21 x 36 cm
nylon 3D printed by Selective Laser Sintering

This flower-like form resulted from the growth of a cone grown differentially towards its edge in a noise field. As the surface expands, the growth front moves with it causing complex ruffled forms to emerge. The ruffles become smaller as smaller as the bend strength decreases.

hyphae 3D 1

nylon 3D printed by Selected Laser Sintering

This form was grown in a fully 3D reimagining of Nervous System’s Hyphae algorithm. The uneven shape of the growth results from a change to the algorithm where veins grow with a probability proportional to the number of sources influencing them.

florescence cristata 1

nylon 3D printed by Selective Laser Sintering

This form resulted from the growth of a hemisphere where growth was promoted along a line in the interior. This growth method was inspired by the abnormal crested growth forms of cacti where the apical meristem is deformed into a line resulting in convoluted growth where it should normally be cylindrical or branching.

hyphae 3D 2

nylon 3D printed by Selective Laser Sintering

This form was grown in a fully 3D reimagining of Nervous System’s Hyphae algorithm. The growth transforms from a sparse open tree structure to a densely reticulated network.

hyphae crispata 1

53 x 53 x 20 cm
nylon 3D printed by Selective Laser Sintering

This sculpture is the product of two algorithms. First, the surface form was generated in our Florescence simulation. Then the network structure was grown upon it using our Hyphae simulation.
