Agent Based Dreamcatcher

Made by Luke Hottinger

My aim with this grasshopper sketch was to prompt an artist to sketch a dreamcatcher-like drawing by following the paths of the randomly generated agents. In this sketch, agents weave and wrap together to replicated the motions of actual thread. These threads then join at a number of central points. The only limitation given to the artist was to not draw the outlined curve generating the agents, but simply the agents themselves. Video for Project: http://youtu.be/I0LdJH46i44
