Sami Lee Woolhiser: Heightfield and Boolean
Here are the baby steps in a few of my projects this quarter. First I am playing with some translation drawings that I have digitally drawn and then converted to a 3 dimensional surface in Rhino using the Heightfield command. Using Illustrator you seem to get different results than with a pixel based image from photoshop.
In Rhino you can see that I have converted it to a solid by projecting my initial heightfield surface to the Cplane, then lofting the edges of the surface on the cplane to the heightfield surface. After I have all of these surfaces constructed all it takes is a join to combine them into an inherent solid!
Here is another project I am working on. These will be fiber relief sculptures, I hope to use a variety of fabrics and materials to achieve a gradient in value as well as texture. My goal is to make at least two of these.
These are essentially smaller versions of an installation called Passage.
Here is the beginning of my Rhino modeling. Keeping these simple at first, the layout is for a paper maquette.
