Hi,

What is the best way to create the lines between the points of the grid?

Thanks

ghx is the format for grasshopper – a ‘graphical algorithm editor’ which works within the Rhino3D modeling program.
So sorry, this can’t be used without those programs. I think it would be reasonably easy to port to something like processing though.

what is a ghx file? do you have the definitions for the graphical interface?

Hey Daniel,
can´t get it work…
defined the Pts in Rhino Viewport- but no Grid (as seen in the video) Preview is enabled – any suggestions?

Thanks Flo

Hi Benjamin, Peter and others

Several people have been asking about the technique I used to generate the streamlines.

I can confirm that it is done in Grasshopper, and the definition is substantially different to the one posted here, and I haven’t yet shared it publicly.

I do intend to publish something on it, but have kept being busy with other things.

It is something I am quite attached to, and I think it is a unique and original method, so I want to make sure I do it justice. Many thanks for all your patience.

Dan

Hi Daniel,

We’re very interested in the organizations implied by the flowlines in the image at the top of this page, but in my experimentation with your magnetic displacement grasshopper definition, I haven’t been able to replicate this kind of effect. My question is, is it possible in grasshopper to create the system of isolines needed to achieve this, and if so can you give me any suggestions as where to begin?

Thanks for the tip. Installing the latest version of the WIP helped. Everything opened fine and I am working with it now. I appreciate you sharing this, it helps while I am learning Grasshopper.

This definition depends on you having an up-to-date version of grasshopper, get version 0.60012 here, which I think solves these problems
