Comments on: Paper Graphs http://knolleary.net taking my thoughts for a walk Mon, 22 Mar 2010 02:00:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Gary Gershon http://knolleary.net/paper-graphs/comment-page-1/#comment-13189 Gary Gershon Mon, 22 Mar 2010 02:00:03 +0000 http://knolleary.net/?page_id=383#comment-13189 Nick, Next time you're in London, stop by the Science Museum and see the exhibit in the Analog Computing section of 3D geometrical, parabolic, and hyperbolic shapes assembled similarly by building up criss-crossed paper frame members. I suppose those were hand-crafted in earlier years perhaps using an analog plotter and scissors. It would be interesting to feed your layouts into a MakerBot-like automated fabrication device and let the laser do the cutting. (BTW, Our shrinking intersecting world -- I live outside of NYC and was in London last week for SOA/ESB meetings in More London Place. I had an afternoon free and visited the fabulous Science Museum in South Kensington. I navigated to your paper graphs blog page looking for an MQTT Arduino client to use with IBM's RSMB and perhaps Pachube.)
