Grasshopper for 3D printing, FullControl.xyz

However, many people are definitely not software engineers and may find this challenging or impossible. To breach that barrier, Gleadall has also created FullControl.xyz, a site that can generate GCODE for various standard shapes on demand.

gd idea but it is still not "intuitive" design. Unlike making prims in sl
it is telling the robot to deposit this or that, repeat x amt of times etc i think, judging from the output of the products

Grasshopper for 3D printing

3d clay printing with WASP, diy printer, cf guqin, model making in Play/Work mode
Soft organic shapes 3D printed in clay
Here, the model was queried by people - how, how did you do this, why is the skin sort of like, strange, well
I made the model in Secondlife, a playful online MMORPG - creators computer "game". I exported it and put in cura printed in pet first, just to see if the model has some problems, then put model in cura for clay printer. If interesting, then print in clay, this way i could see the differences between pet and clay.
I like to make shapes that are more free form not rigid heavy stuff. I want to make sculptures that are strong and light weight, not heavy footed things. When the material could be light weight and super strong, thats really beautiful.
Sometimes I dont want mathematical precision, I only want "eye" precision, human eye precision, for a piece of work to look natural, the object must arrange to sit at its own centre of mass, it will always look right. It can re distribute its own tension and not force an outer form onto a rigid structure. When you see someone walking with a slight limp, or a stiff body, its because they are in pain, they try to compensate the body so its less painful. They avoid the pinched nerve or try to make balance from an imbalance due to some accident.
NB
I use a computer game software to make my 3d print objects, because the principle is, how to export virtual world Secondlife objects to real life objects, is it possible?

How does a child make an object at 4 year old? How come it always - with every child whatever the level of natural talent - looks right? vis a vis the child and to our eyes too. One of the best Mona Lisa reinterpretation is made by a child.
I even made the guqin music instrument model in Secondlife using prims, just to see what happens in real life when you actually print it out and not use the current "mesh" which is importation of real life objects into Secondlife virtual world, these are v sophisticated models as they are real life models.
When you are in "play" mode, does it turn on some other facilities in your brain and not incur "tireness"? Do you have extra endorphins/dopamine in your system?
In a computer game software, the volumes are not aligned perfectly, its by "eye", if one wants to align perfectly you could also use mathematical alignment then its perfect. But i want it to look handmade, thats why i prefer "eyeing" method.
The Secondlife virtual object is first printed in pet, just to see if there are any problems, transparent pet. Sometimes if the object is too big, i first use netfabb to cut it to smaller sizes, then reassemble later.
Fired and glazed stoneware, a tiny test of a double layered mug - see the "knitting" effect inside, and the flying bridging clay travel lines. Once fired, these filaments are quite tough, rigid. V interesting quality.
PET version to see the model in physical form before printing in clay.
This disk is part of a free model downloaded from the internet. :)
The file has been adapted for clay printing by Piotr and kindly printed to let me see the feasibility.

Piotr Waśniowski : ...it is one open curve prepared in Rhino and is not transferrable into stls. You have to own Rhino to open and edit this file and then use Grasshopper to generate gcode from this file.
: non linear plenar printing, Rhino , grasshopper see samples on youtube, instagram...
minimum one 3d software that can generate stls and then use cura or PrusaSlicer to generate gcode. If you want to print your prints in my way Rhino is necessary.

Advantages of using grasshopper to generate gcode
March of the Algorithms
Grasshopper was released as a Rhinoceros add-on in 2014 and since then has gathered a vibrant community of designers, engineers, artists, and architects. It has its own user interface panel separate from the 3D viewport in which users can add functional blocks of code.
These blocks are connected, forming a node network through which data passes to generate increasingly elaborate designs. Instead of the geometry itself, only the definition gets saved, which conveniently minimizes file size, making it easier to share Grasshopper files. The final result of creating with Grasshopper is a mesh object ready for 3D printing.
But Grasshopper is not only for the code junkies out there; after a week or so of learning and experimentation, the program becomes quite intuitive because of its visual nature. And for those working with additive manufacturing technology, it turns out to be an indispensable tool for making geometry that other modeling environments could only dream of. The following are some of the main advantages of using Grasshopper.

singing. This shows what is really of the full scene w audience participation.
you see who are the audiences, how it happens etc.

re: Dimash - my favorite teacher, the one who actually kicked start my singing - learning to sing work. Other people could hit high notes, many could, but his singing has a kind of melancholy in it. This melancholy rings true with a lot of listeners. And its such a strong resilient voice, it comes above all the regular singing voices. But by itself, if he were singing opera tunes, this speciality is not so obvious.
I am just a beginner diy singer, this is just my opinion. I am sure there are lots of technical details that i am not able to hear now. But i listen and re listen to various singers to see, are they still as interesting as when i first heard them?
Model of full range, melancholic singing.
re: sad photos that fans are beginning to admit.
I dont think this photo is sad, the photos of him in nude torso - a series of them appears every now and then - is always a bit sad. In fact all pro people in any field will have maintained a self disciplined way of being, whether you are v famous or not. This will mean your normal everyday peoples' "freedom" is rare. No ice cream, no alcohol, no eating bbq strands sitting on a stool at a night market.... you probably dont enjoy these as much as all that either, etc all these insignificant stuff. Madonna once said she couldnt go get her cereal herself, the kind she really wants, right?
Gien, a hot and sunny day and night event
29 degree outside... Pitaya cactus core is 2mm tall. I will wait until it's 5 mm tall, then it will get graduation certificate and a little star. "MobileMusic" is at 10%, ceramic red leaves are reappearing w the goddess wine glass and cast iron tea cup. "Scholarstone Flower" is blooming forever. Here at a restaurant "M" by the waters, a huge ex-moulin, now converted into a cheerful mediatic huge high ceiling space. This is a huge place with a lot of American jazz old classics playing as background music, they have a piano too and their menu has old covers of vinyl disks, food is ok, but maybe its because we got ther kind of later lunch hour, almost no more food left? No more fresh bbq of fish etc etc. I almost ordered a quarter pounder hamberger. Checked on cactus, oh, three are showing spiky cores, even the last one, the one who kind of broke its tail is still alive. Out of 6000 seeds per fruit, this batch had at least 1000seeds, but it was in March too cold, no amount of heating pad, little blankets, green house globes could save them from their fate, except these 5. Now, the black saporte, all five germination, be careful, dont plant too deep, but the central root seems to be growing all the time! Yes, i opened their seeding planting device (which i designed for a see through of progress, but did not push the seed up against the viewing walls, so viewing at the end takes the breaking of the device - temporarily - as i could reassemble the device afterwards) so i opened, yes, growing. Then transplanted, one quickly shot up, the other 4 no. Second repotting shows yes, growing. ok this time I put them v near the top. And now, you see them all growing beyond the surface!
Lots of words, more later. Got to eat my _brkfst. Which consist of, giant cafe au lait w honey, jumbo bowl of real soup, juicy rare steak (4oz) w spinach soup over a dose of miso base laced w sesame oil with a few buck wheat noodles. Noodles are necessary for the texture. Dont over cook into soft snake like state, just cooked is best.

"War Pony",****. 2022
"War Pony",****. 2022 director Gina Gammell et Kiley Reough - Camera d'Or from Festival de Cannes
Very moving. First time I see up close about life inside Indian reservation. It's not easy to move from point A to point B. How the government tries to do good. There is also something enclosed about the environment, the way things work, it's all internal a no way out system, reminds me of how small some worlds could be.
cont'd
I guess most of stories about people could be simplified to "how to get from point A to point B". Doesnt matter if you are from the countryside, the princes palace, the man lost in the forest for 40 years thinking war is still on. Important issue is "How to get from Point A to Point B"
So to do anything, you need a target, then you find out whats needed to get to the target. Once you gather everything on hand, you do whatever you think best to finish - but of course details are everything. Life is in the details.
This is a v gd, breathing with life story. The boy burns the bag of money and drugs in a tiny bonfire that he made including his how to do magic book, but he kept the one precious thing he treasures, a feather - is this an eagles' feather? - because what could you do w these things? If he tried to use them, he will be in hot water more than ever. He could not leave his Point A without other supporting elements. He found it in the man whose house he has broken into to steal food, but the man asked him if he wanted pancake, would he like some food? and upon request, made him a peanut butter and jam sandwich for him, he had found someone a little like him, someone like family. This is "communication" to say it coldly. No one could "communicate" verbally without passing into actual detail acts.
If possible, go see this movie, its a great film. 4 stars
more later.

pitaya cactus core
Little cactus cores showing maybe all 5!! And i repotted 4 black Saporte as it's been a while - well. They tried hard... So i gotta help them... Repotted at a shallower covering ... Let's see. Summer is short, they must make the best of the warm weather n sunlight.... Go go go

Somebody went to a karaoke cafe bar last night, and i found almost all the people who got up on "stage" to sing, could sing not bad, and their faces light up when they sing as if they had turned themselves "on,". Some had true big voices, torch songs，pop songs , Arab tunes w giggly girls, birthday party celebrations, anger songs w animated faces... pop from 70s, 80s， Everyone could sing. I sang Hello, but i can't hear myself while singing. Must wait for the clip from members of the fan group ... 2nd time singing in public at karaoke w a fan club. That is when i know, i cannot sing the song smoothly like at home. And from a pic that my posture needs attention!!
this is a karaoke public singing event last night, just social event not anything special. Audience are all the other beer drinkers, diners. I sang "Hello" and two firends came up to join me. I want to improve, posture, the smooth singing between the low notes and v highnotes, i could do the low and the high, but using natural voice after a while, when it gets to the high part, i changed into another voice, i want to be able to make a smooth transition. The in between notes. I could do a siren, and could also map the piano keys to my voice, but when singing, in one phrase, its not smooth. Maybe i have to change resonating points in back of my "little mouth" ? have to practice and find where these points are? How long does this take normally? one yr, 6 months, 3 months? Like learning to ride bike? maintaining balance center no matter if you lean to right or left go fast or slow?
cannot hear myself on "stage". Once on stage, cant remember about posture, and could sing the low notes and the high notes, but the in between when it gets to a point becomes a strain, had to go to high range. Maybe have to learn how to sing those in between notes. But i could do a smooth sirene, so the notes are there... but have to get them out properly. I felt straining and had to switch to the high scale.

Just for myself, a note to myself
I totally agree this issue of singing in foreign language - not just w an accent - but wrong way of pronouncing a word, I especially notice this w a v famous singer, I admire v much but, when I hear him sing w wrong pronunciation, not "accent" but wrong its v jarring to my ears. ie, vis, is pronounced as veeeee, not vissss, this kind of errors, unforgiveable. Like Freya says, its the job of the singer, if you want to claim singing in a foreign language, then this kind of error is inadmissable. It totally lowered the level of the singing by notches.
