27/09/2011 Lesson 2- Rule Based Art : Paper Folding

We were all given a shape to start off with at the beginning of the class, i was given a triangle. We then gave ourselves 3 rules in order to make a sequence of 2D shapes. My rules were "add square", "remove semi circle" and "add fold", Here's what i came up with...

Stage 1 : Here are stages 1-15 of applying my rules to a triangle

With the resulting shape of each stage, i created a three dimensional structure 

 

I constructed the shape using tiny strips of masking tape
