Just for everyone's ease of reference.

That's very exciting to see this, ...Hey Ethan,<br /><br />That's very exciting to see this, so thanks so much for translating all my garbled instructions! I know this is a 'maquette', so I'm not going to weigh in with a bunch of 'couldn't it be more like'... but in purely sculptural terms, I think the 'petals' (for want of a better word) need to be bigger and more expressive in terms of their scale, so it feels really 'there' - this might be an instance of using four or three much thinner supports, and making the 'thing' much more expansive and therefore 'open' on top.<br /><br />Really looking forward to seeing that turnaround, Ethan!<br /><br />Some more 'what ifs' and garbled instructions then - could you do a version for me when the flattened curves are left as solid shapes (so just like flat 'splats'), but the various iterations of the curve are combined like this:<br /><br />http://images.gizmag.com/inline/cartonado-cardboard-lamp-4.jpg<br /><br />http://assets.dornob.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/cartonado-hanging-lamps.jpg<br /><br />http://www.furnime.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/08/cardboard-furniture.jpg<br /><br />I know they're not going to sit together symmetrically like this - but it's that sense of a single 3D form as created by the flat curves that I'm interested in seeing happen. I know too that there might be some 'unattached' forms, as the curves create sections that float away from the main shape, but if these could be 'reattached' using some kind of thin stem or sprue (as if welded on afterwards?), that would be interesting to see.<br /><br />Does this make sense?<br /><br />I'd also like to see you explore a construction system like this:<br /><br />http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ldSZyOx0YAw/Tbg8VO3cmzI/AAAAAAAAASw/CYCNHxGzC3M/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-04-27+at+11.54.41+AM.png<br /><br /><br />I.e. when slices of the same curve are gridded together like this - nightmarish, no doubt, but if anyone can work this out, it's you!<br /><br />Let me know - and many thanks, Ethan, for continuing to drive these project forwards so creatively!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Philtutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.com
