You will create a family of at least three forms that explore a dataset. These forms can be any type of form you wish. You should find and explore a new dataset, one that is different than the ones we have explored in class. Each vessel should be at least 2.5 inches (6.5cm) tall and 1.5 (4cm) inches in diameter. Plan ahead. Expect each print to take at least 10 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What to Hand In<\/strong><br>Create a post on this website that documents the work that you did. Your post should include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dataset. Provide a link to your dataset. Describe how and why you chose your dataset. Describe any data cleaning and filtering that you had to do.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design Process. Describe how you used your data to generate 3D forms. Explain why you chose the forms you did.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Images of forms generated by your Grasshopper\/Rhino program rendered in Rhino. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Images of your printing process. Include images of any printing problems you encountered.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Excellent images of your final printed artifacts against a simple background. Follow the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/2022\/01\/31\/taking-good-photographs\/\">photo tutorial<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A reflection on designing with data, 1-3 paragraphs. What does the process of creating objects via with data let you do that you could not do before? What kind of (unique) meanings can such objects have? <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your Grasshopper code. Name your program using the following convention: FirstnameLastnameLA3.gh. Upload the .gh file to the website and include a link to it in your post.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/2022\/01\/22\/code-style-guidelines\/\">Code Style Guidelines<\/a>.
