Circle Crossing

I am learning Grasshopper. In this Circle Crossing definition, I tried to create the above pattern (also described in Sunflower Spiral) as simply as possible, this definition creates not only spirals but is also capable of more tessellations I guess. Maybe a three-dimensional equivalent might be studied in the future. As you can see from the definition, I started with a large circle. Then, I divided it into segments and placed new circles centered on them. Finally, I divide the secondary circles and connect them with a Polyline. It is a good starting exercise to produce something and learn some of the basic components of Grasshopper.

Here is the Grasshopper definition:

“The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. (One is unable to notice something because it is always before one’s eyes.) The real foundations of his inquiry do not strike a man at all” Ludwig Wittgenstein (1958, PI.)

What I have been learning so far, and in the Circle Crossing, is so basic and simple. I will continue to combine the components of Grasshopper to develop new working machines. It is probably not about design and architecture in a broader sense. I guess it is about the comprehension of life, by thinking and producing. I hope that I will produce more for myself and for everyone else around me. Probably this is the reason I chose to be a teacher. What I want is to leave something after I pass away.
