Digital Sketches


This is yet another rendition of taking a simple curve and shifting it in the z axis incrementally and then rotating by a small interval.


Then we scale various areas by a set increment. This allows the object to get out of cylinder land.

I have been wondering if we make this curve the users submit a curve with say 20-25 control points, we can allow for a standard variation in that form for each piece. This would introduce a little more interest into the mix. Perhaps an variation between a couple of materials or thicknesses would also help.

In the neighborhood of our power source, I've been investigating how my rechargeable toothbrush works. It has no metal contacts but still charges fine. See link for info on the concept. We should investigate the possibility of that concept being used with a flat surface against a flat surface, rather than interlocking coils.

I'll add more to this post later.
