<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThese patterns where placed on the two different forms below, using a surface morph in different ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Below are these objects printed (the cylinder on the left was the first iteration but the pattern extruded too far and left gaps due to the overhanging and I found that it was also too large, so the right cylinder remedies these issues) and the wavy shape on the right uses the same depth on the pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to mold these forms I intially was going to use plastic quart take out containers, but I have always had issues with hot glue and it never sticking to anything, so I decided to just 3D print the container to hold the silicone attached to the forms. Below are images of these, and when printed the borders are a single layer so they can be easily removed if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I managed to print both of these forms out and poured the silicone molding material into both, the cylinder has quite a large bubble but the base is pretty thick so I think it won’t cause any issues. I haven’t gotten the chance to take them out but I am not getting the candles and wicks until later this week so there isn’t much more to be done at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Week 13 (November 11): Set up the required code to be able to generate these patterns with variable inputs and find a collection of those that are interesting or cool to look at. Finished.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Week 14 (November 18): Iterate different methods of printing these generated patterns, and decide by now or hopefully earlier if I want to create candles and buy the supplies for that. Finished.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Week 15 (November 25): Finalize the collection of objects with these generated patterns, and start the molding and casting process of the 3D printed forms for candles if I conclude this is an option that I am comfortable with from the previous deadline. I have started the molding\/casting process but I want to make at least one more form.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I am still on track with my original timeline but I’m doing a bit of jumping around with the process, the final forms and candles should be done by the final deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As stated above I still want to create another form using the Turing patterns that with a complex shape as to not worry about the restrictions with having to mold\/cast the object. There will be two candles at least and a combined total of at least three final objects, all of which that are different base forms and patterns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Description\/Documentation Creating code to generate the Turing patterns was quite difficult but not for complexity reasons, I tried to import NumPy and it took me far longer than I’d like to admit to get that figured out.
