ORIENTAL GEODESIC DOME (GENERATIVE ALGORITHM)

University of Tehran and Carbon Fablab

Toward different approaches for fabricating Oriental Geodesic Dome with the usage of Generative Algorithm This project include, research in theory and practice, both soft and hard, and include research for proper materials, proper algorithms, and proper implementation techniques which in this case molding and casting have been utilized The problem: In this Pavillion problem we were worked was fabricating a Dome algorithmically without the usage of any materials for connection, thus the modules stay on the basis of their physical attributes. The chanllenge here was mathematical calculation of each module and the process of fabrication of these modules, thus they could be formed in a consistent ways. My Role here was on building interaction for this pavillion (Although I have participate in general brainstorming sessions, fabrication and design session as teammate but my main focus was interactions ), The Cellular Automata project (found in this portfolio) was made with the purpose of installation in this pavillion, that consists: sensors, 2D fabrication and design and electronics. which react on the basis of individual proccessing units operated on PIR sensors and network of LED connected to a transistor and powered by both battery and power supply.
