By Algorithmic Artisans NERVOUS SYSTEM Inspired by the complex forms of radiolarians (amoeboid protozoa that produce intricate mineral skeletons), where intricate pattern is integral to structure, these shapes derive from a simulation of spring meshes which form mirrored catenoid surfaces. Nervous System have created interactive software to morph, twist, and subdivide each design, transforming a simple mesh to a complex patterned structure. The final design is built up layer by layer in durable nylon plastic using Selective Laser Sintering,
