Saving your work often is essential when working with grasshopper. To illustrate this point, I decided to create a really awesome associative model, take a screenshot of it, and then fail to save it before closing Rhino. That’s how brilliant I am.
Below is proof that I did indeed have a more complete model, and below that is a link to the .ghx file in the state it was in 1hr before the screenshot below.
For those of you who attended the second GH workshop please visit the new Digital Futures Group wiki for assignment information, workshop files, and to post your progress. If you were on the sign-up sheet you will have a username and password for posting to the wiki. Remember to please reference the Grasshopper Primer which can be found on the wiki if you need a refresher.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

Dim crvList As New List(Of OnNurbsCurve)
Dim bounds As Int32 = pts.Count / num

For i As Int32 = 0 To bounds - 1
Dim degree As Integer = 3
Dim ptArray As New ArrayOn3dPoint(num)
For j As Int32 = 0 To num - 1
Dim pt As IOn3dPoint
pt = pts(j * bounds + i)
ptArray.Append(pt)
Next
Dim crv As New OnNurbsCurve

If crv.IsValid Then
crvList.Add(crv)
End If

For all participants in the second Grasshopper workshop please do the following :
Continue to develop the tower built in class by adding more detail such as structural geometry with controllable radius and populated skin.
Bake your skin, floor plate, and any further detailed geometries.
With your viewport set to Ghosted, take a screen grab of your tower.
Develop + Diagram a simple parametric cell with a quadrangular boundary for next week’s workshop.
Post your screengrab and diagram to the wiki with the title formatted as follows : gAkos | GH_Assign02, check Grasshopper as your category, and tag the post with your name and applicable tags.
