We carried on more experiments with Concrete Cloth (CC). This time, we followed some of the logic of our form finding methods we used on the Hybios prototypes.
Some emergent properties of the materials informed the forming process. This time, a point was pushed from underneath rather than pulled. cuts were planned out strategically and pulled to create a symmetrical dome shape.
We also tried restraining points on a grid. The results were surprisingly satisfactory. The CC used this time was 8mm thick though. We used the cuts to form orb like cells restrained by the frame we used for one of our very first experiments with plaster.
