Laser Cutting Mockups ( digital )

I further examined this concept of form and possibility through digital manipulation of the latticed array. The following are some various forms I created usihng blender.

The main idea of these forms is having a lattice of interconnected peices that join to make the whole. Originally my idea was to have each of these individual entities be suggestive of the individuals contribution within open source software, and how each contributes to the overall idea. They came together to create the form of the booth.

The following were some of the ideas/forms I preferred:




The first form has an a-symmetrical grounding on oly one side, giving an unbalanced constructed feel consistent with the theme of software: an artificial construct.

However, the overarching was more practical as a site in construction. The bottom form applied the possibility of two levels in a rudimentary and early proposition which was quite accidental hence there is no access route.

From these form constructions the lattice proves to be significant in being a modular base for the design, although I feel the theme of each one representing an individual is not qualified as a satisfactory conclusion. The abstraction and metaphysical relation to open source software needs a stronger foundation.
