I know where they should be - my model is not good enough to show them

We had a blast exploring geometry at the AAG workshop these last two days, building many flexible structures with intricate topologies and surprising transformability from simple flexible ribbon elements.
Thanks to @alisonmartin57.bsky.social , Seiichi Suzuki, Yuanpeng Liu, Hong-Bin Yang.
@fdecomite.bsky.social your work was most important inspiration / insight to make this model 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

At the 2022 #MOFs conference with this year’s #chemistry #Nobel prize winner - Omar Yaghi. Many congratulations!!
It was a wonderful experience and a great inspiration to talk to him about this work.

Join us at AAG this November in Boston for a workshop on elastic gridshells!
Together with @alisonmartin57.bsky.social, Seiichi Suzuki, and Yuanpeng Liu, we will study new typologies of gridshells composed of discrete, reusable elements.
More info on the workshop: www.aag2025.com/workshop-2
‘Beyond Continuity. Designing elastic gridshells with discrete reusable elements.
Advances in Architectural Geometry 2025.
At Massachusetts Institute of Technology 16 - 19 November.
With Seiichi Suzuki and @markpauly.bsky.social

George Hart is very impressive and inspiring. This was at last month’s conference archive.bridgesmathart.org/2025/bridges...

These shapes are fascinating and worth studying. I’m working on ways to model them without a 3D printer and I will share instructions if it seems feasible 🤞
