Robotic hermit crabs make your teapot their home:

A Robotic hermit crab has moved into your home, during the day it sleeps peacefully in it’s shell and your teapot. During the night this little guy wakes up looking for a snack, chewing away at the unused bits of your table it culls away any unneeded surface.

Pallet Reconfigure

1a1.jpg

How to reconfigure a pallet to produce a smooth working surface.

Step 1: start with any old pallet.
Step 2: Take a crow bar.
Step 3: Pry off each slat of wood, taking care not to bend nails.
Step 4: remove all top slat.
Step 5: Place wooden slats back on pallet, nail slats back into pallet using exiting nails and placing slats up against each other.
Step 6: Some nails will be bent, these can either be taken out and straightened or disposed of.
Step 7: Nail down all wooden slats until a even wooden surface is produced.

Qulia Logo

I’ve been playing around with a few idea’s for a identity and logo.

I think this one although very subtle talks about senses some how.

you have to wait a while for it to load and come up, but I promise it will.

I think it could be nice to use many different colours so that the particles mixed together when you moved the logo.

verletChain test 3d

For these I used a chain of particles to describe a 3d surface as they moved through space.

I’m interested in how movement can be translated into form and how because there is a logic to the physics that acts on these moving particles the final form also has logic as a form.
