A Construction Method Using Computer Modeling

17 new photos added to shared album

Stewart Dickson, [email protected]
 January 30, 1990
 Abstract        A computer-aided method of modular hull construction is presented which uses a novel means for orienting its component parts, based on the geometrical and topological attributes of Platonic Solids.  The results of the construction can be seen to be an extension of the Geodesic Dome to a non-spherical surface topology;  i.e., a topology containing many handles.  The ability to build a closed surface of non-spherical topology with a regular polygon tiling is an improvement over previous modeling methods. … 2. A Data Structure Supporting Manifold Connectivity

              int vertno[2];


              int faceno[2];


              float length;


              float theta;


      } **edge; … }; See also: Glassner, Andrew, Maintaining Winged-Edge Models, Graphics Gems II, p. 191-201.  James Arvo (editor), Academic Press, 1991, ISBN: 0120644819.

Directions | Vito Acconci, 1969

[spdfilmography]

I'll never forget seeing Vito Acconci's presentation at the 1992 International Sculpture Conference, University of the arts, Philadelphia. He presented a proposal for a school bus shelter, wherein the building was fractured, with the roof protruding diagonally out of the ground. He said, in his New York Italian accent,

"School is OUT. School has been BLOWN APART." (h/t Alice Cooper, "The greatest exponent of chaos" --Salvadore Dali)

So, you have to read "Directions" in Vito Acconci's voice.

I'm pretty sure the chair Jobe (Jeff Fahey) is in is a stripped-down version of the one above -- the Flogiston Chair by Brian Vandellyn Park. The design put you into the (NASA) Neutral Body Position for maximum creative energy flow.

Under capitalism, income comes from "profits" (money from making or doing things); under feudalism, income is based on "rents" (money from owning things).

When a company ceases to do or make things and its income increases, that company isn't practicing capitalism (mobilizing capital for production), it's practicing feudalism (extracting rents from assets).
