A concept of de-evolution of a rigid form into the ephemeral termination of pure light was our original inspiration. The forms were loosely based on the concept of a cocoon. This was further shaped by our desire to use a few different materials (spandex (a class favorite apparently), felt and also acrylic rods).
Our initial concept involved separated forms connected by the rods, however the project parameters necessitated a more compact design.
Some further iterations examining how the rods might be further incorporated into the design.
Our latest paper iteration, our next post will show the 3d prototype.
Playing with particular light transmission properties of the acrylic rods:
