The goal of this project is to use agent-based algorithm to generate a dome by Python, Processing or Grasshopper scripts. The webby dome is generated by an algorithm written in Python and has 5000 agents. There is no main structure such as beams, columns and arches for supporting the dome, instead, hundreds of thousand of thin rods play the role for supporting the dome. Like a straw hut, the rods in the dome act like the straws weaving together and hence form a structural surface. In the end, we are required to make it real in FabLab. Robot arm with an extruder (for extruding PLC) becomes a tool for us to realize the digital model.
