Interactive Genetic Algorithm

20 12 2009

This is a research project doneĀ  in the Hyperbody studio (TU Delft) under tutorship of MarkDavid Hosale, which explores the subject-matter of aesthetics and creativity in evolutionary design. We created a genetic algorithm for form-finding process, that combines both optimization towards objective fitness function (which in this case is the biggest volume) and optimization towards user’s aesthetic preferences. The user is involved in the evaluation process in different ways; on the first picture choosing 1 of 3 elements in every generation, on the seconed one 2 of 3. The algorithm was written using Rhinoscript.

Fluid Surface

Here is a short research project representing water flow. These surfaces were created by puling UV points proportional to a distance from an attractor. This results in a deformation resembling water.
