New 5-Axis Swarfing Patterns
The Rhino / Grasshopper CAMel plugin is now running the 5-Axis machine, generating G-Code entirely within the Grasshopper modeling environment. This supports a rapid workflow for experimentation with the possibilities offered by 5-Axis milling, such as complex SWARF patterns as

PARAMETRIC STEEL
Work in Progress by Akihiro Moriya, a student in my FABCRAFT spring seminar. The steel component geometry is produced parametrically using a grasshopper definition controlled by the surface geometry. The steel is plasma-cut on our combination 5-Axis mill and plasma

Adaptive Surface Systems
A working prototype utilizing the new “Firefly” plugin for Rhino / Grasshopper. The adaptive surface reacts to changing light conditions, reshaping the pliable insert and sending data back to the digital model in real-time. The 2-way data stream allows simultaneous

Buffalo Bayou Installation
One of two projects installed on the banks of Houston’s Buffalo Bayou in the fall of 2008. The site has views to downtown, a bike path and four huge concrete silos. The BENTWOOD CLOUD project is composed of multiple prefabricated

EFAB Pavilion
The EFAB Pavilion came together this Spring in my Environmental Fabrications Studio at UH. The work was produced by 5 separate teams, exploring innovative material assemblies. The entire development and construction of the pavilion can be seen at the VIMEO
