Extra Strong!

March 24, 2007

just enjoy this :D

I’ve recently found this interesting site talking about 3d puzzles and I decided to adapt the wooden version of this Ico to paper, making it a modular kirigami, I’ve slightly modified it rounding the edges of the slim modules! very funny to make!!

made with blue cardboard, 20 triangles and 30 round sections.

:D

Tha function study we were talking about some times ago have had its end, here is what I came up with…

nothing special but funny to make, I’ve in my mind something more difficult but visually more pleasing to the eye…maybe if I have time I’ll make it…stay tuned :D

FUNctions!

Playing with math functions is always a pleasure and try to get the function you want by adjusting it step by step is very nice…or maybe only cause I’m a geek!…

I’ve recently discovered that with javascript it’s possible to write scripts for Adobe Photoshop, so armed with my trusted notepad2 I’ve written a script to plot parametric 2d functions. you can see some examples below:

If you want the script, feel free to contact me at lorenzo.marchi [at] gmail.com.

…and stay tuned for a nice use of this function :)

N.n.u.t.s

Hi all, this was another of my flagstones. Called “nothing new under the sun” cause it uses no new shapes but the same as always: triangles, hexagons and rhombuses. However they’re arranged in a new way, so as Jane has told me, there was something new.

this is what came out

and as always I’ve published a CP
