Perlin noise is a gradient noise function that has been widely used in computer graphics, procedural generation, and various other applications to generate natural-looking patterns. Here is my brief exploration of the Perlin Noise Generator. Although I didn’t fully follow the traditional steps the result looks similar. I started with the square grid and generated random gradient vectors on every grid corner. Then, I implemented the original algorithm’s dot product […]
This Grasshopper exercise is a special one. I used Hoopsnake components to develop the branching design I studied earlier here. This time I multiplied the number and orientations of several tree structures to generate my interpretation of the Tree of Life. The challenging part of the algorithm was to finalize every branch tangent to a predefined circle. Group 3 handles this issue by utilizing a Blend Curve component. There are […]
Recently I found this VB.net component in an old Grasshopper project. I am not sure if it is mine or not, but I wanted to share it with you. This code modifies Rhino viewport colors quickly without entering the Rhino options window. I frequently modify the viewport colors and grid settings to create renders or animations within Grasshopper. This is why, this component might be useful in making quick modifications […]
