The above photos represent a sketch attempt at digitally generated weaving. From a surface in Rhino, I adjusted the U/V curves to striate the surface into two stripped files. Then, through the UnRoll command i created two templates-one for horizontal weaving and one for vertical weaving. Learning from the Native American basket techniques I tried to create thicker vertical bands and more slender and flexible horizontal bands. After a few passes at weaving the two together i realized that chipboard is not the best material. Also, I'm wrestling with how the surface's undulations will be registered....how will the weave pull in and out as a surface does?

very interesting. seems that something should mark the positions where the woven pieces of chipboard intersect. pinning those intersections will fix them in place at the precise bend, and possibly result in an interesting tectonic expression depending on how they are pinned.
definaltey agree, i look toward the yurt in pinning the woven tectonic.
