Let's steal nature's design tools.
My road trip to Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding area was eye opening. I had always know the power of emergence in creating natural wonders, but during my visit,… Read More →
In the past week, I tested and evolved nine generations of airplanes. The testing process was straightforward and it took me approximately an hour to create a new generation of planes… Read More →
After laser cutting the first generation of planes, I tested how far each one flew. Before I show the results, I have to explain the process I used to test… Read More →
I finally finished the script responsible for designing the airplanes. Without going through too much detail, here is roughly the outline of how the process of evolving planes works. For… Read More →
Before developing an algorithm that allows me to evolve planes, I needed to define a a standard way to connect the wings to the fuselage. I experimented with different types… Read More →
So far, all of my explorations have been purely digital. While a digital canvas allows me to explore ideas fairly quickly, I am really interested in how we can use… Read More →
As I mentioned in the project, ‘Particle Network’ doesn’t even begin to show the potential of what a neural network can do. It is merely a visualization of what happens inside of… Read More →
When creating ‘Emergent Doodles’ , my incentive was to design a system where the output could not be predicted by the input of the designer. I created an environment where a doodler… Read More →
‘Evolving Zombies’ is a project where I explored how objects within a system can change and develop automatically over time. I wanted to create an environment where two types of creatures,… Read More →
“See that the imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man.” … Read More →
