The Additive/Proliferate

Topics
Massing (the idea of Voxel), Defining a Voxel (the standard model), Proliferation rules

Instructions

Following the instructions in the previous video that you watched in the forming sections, follow the instructions below to prepare your voxel models.

  1. Proliferate a module (defined by you) in-between the interlocked MDF section profiles created in CUT.  
  2. Proliferate a module (already existing) in-between the interlocked MDF section profiles created in CUT.

Notes:

  • The voxels have to be volumetric, avoid using surfaces
  • The size has to be between 0.5mm to 1cm, vary the resolution in relation to your sections. The smaller your voxel the higher the resolution
  • You can vary the voxels in color but not in form
  • You can vary the voxels in size
  • All voxels have to be identical
  • Voxels could be edibles, avoid very soft ones
  • Avoid voxels that are excessively larger in one dimension than another

Delivery

Submit the Blend exercise (both forming and additive) at 23:59 one day before the next session.
