Cropped down version of a snowflake shot. Caught out the back door on a sheet of glass, propped over a black fleece jacket, close-up shot with bellows, flash angled in there on the left with a 3x5 card off to the right for bounce.
Bradford Hansen-Smith has been experimenting with structures made from a great many 10-inch bamboo skewers held together with short pieces of rubber tubing. He calls the technique Stickweaving and presents a gallery of interesting examples. Modular units connect to neighboring units with tubing and the entire structure is flexible enough to be collapsed or morphed into various surfaces.
Daniel Piker of Space Symmetry Structure has various investigations in design rooted in mathematical concepts. Let me highlight a couple. Check out his medial surfaces between link components. Below is Piker's image of the medial surface between the components of the Whitehead link. Also an interesting read is his discussion of Rheotomic surfaces and structures…

Many of the parks and children’s playgrounds in Japan, particularly in Tokyo, are quite poor compared to other countries in terms of space, surroundings and a lack of grass. However, a handful of them do tend to possess extremely creative structures and they will be explored in this series. Nickname: Telephone Slide Location: Kashiwa Koen, 2 Kashiwa,…

Smart surfaces are a set of surface technologies that allow cities to better manage sun and rain. Smart surfaces cost-effectively reduce temperatures and flood risk, and improve city and community livability, health, and equity.
Of course we all love the basics when it comes to web design, we like columns, grids, organized and well disposed conten

These are Rheotomic Surfaces – from the Greek Rheo – flow and Tomos – cut or section (as in tomography) The horizontal sections of these surfaces correspond to the moving equipotential lines of a 2D Laplacian flow, with height mapped to time. Such surfaces are complete, embedded and walkably connected. In this essay I present…
