Friday Week 2
Today was a bit of a mad rush to the finish line.
With the clients meeting rescheduled to 2pm we had a bit less time than expected to get everything finalised.
The morning was spent tidying up grasshopper scripts and getting them set to be put in the powerpoint presentation, so I didn't actually get an opportunity to do any more work on developing the scripts further from yesterday.
Once all the scripts had been tidied and sent to Tim to create the presentation the focus moved to assembling the prototypes the material groups had begun to build. One prototype was quite a mess of cable-ties and mdf but it effectively illustrated the way the triangles can create the curving structure necessary.
The clients arrived and Tim kicked the presentation off as we were securing the last cable-ties to hold the prototype together. We went around the room, jumping from computer to computer to demonstrate how the various systems worked with and from each other to create the full picture.
I think the final presentation was quite successful, and probably a good reflection on the two weeks of work, where we managed to achieve a lot more than I initially thought we were going to. I look forward to working further on this project with a view toward the construction side of things in April!
