Year Anthem you put the storm out Mud By now, everyone knows that Black Rock City got muddy. 2 Downpours brought the city to a standstill for several days building up to some confusion by the end of the week. Fortunately or not, I wasn’t this year in the city planning for 2024 eager to catch up with the vibrancy of this ever-changing-still-quite-the-same temporary city.

A new university building in Denmark is the first of its kind to meet strict new energy-consumption caps
Whilst at university I did a small research project into the tensile structures by Frei Otto. I made numerous tensile structures of my own using similar methods to Frei Otto. The models pictured above were produced with tights. This is a very effective way of producing interesting tensile forms. I have continued exploring the Kangaroo plugin for Grasshopper and have been able to produce very similar tensile forms digitally to those which I produced physically. There is a further plugin required to produce such forms called Weaverbird. Below is video of the simulation produced with the software. The final 3D models had a neat mesh and were fairly effective at imitating the real life behaviour of the tensile models I made. Below are a few images of the final tensile mesh, thanks to the Grasshopper Kangaroo Weaverbird software.
