  • Tubular Sculptures
    Tubular Sculptures Carlo H. Séquin CS Division, University of California, Berkeley, CA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper reviews ways in which many artists have constructed large sculptures from tubular elements, ranging from single cylinders to toroidal or knotted structures, to assemblies of a large number of bent tubes. A few parameterized generators are introduced that facilitate design and evaluation of a variety of such sculptural forms. 1. Introduction Artists like Charles O. Perry have been able to build very large scale sculptures filling volumes of more than 30 feet in diameter at an affordable price by assembling pre-cut and bent tubular pieces. Stellar examples are Eclipse in the Hyatt Regency lobby in San Francisco, or Equinox at the Lincoln Center, Dallas, Texas (Fig.1a). But even much smaller assemblies of tubular elements can make very attractive sculptures. At the small end of this spectrum we find sculptures by Max Bill, e.g., Assembly of three equal cylinders (Fig.1b) [2], or the elegant tubular loops by José de Rivera (Fig.1c) [4]. Additional “minimal sculptures” will be discussed in Section 3. Figure 1: (a) Charles O. Perry: “Equinox;” (b) Max Bill: “Assembly of 3 equal cylinder;” (c) José de Rivera: “Construction #35.” With so many diverse ways of forming attractive sculptures from tubular elements, it seems worthwhile to try to compile an organized overview over the many possibilities and approaches used, and to explore in which ways computer-aided tools may be helpful to create additional, and potentially more complex, artistic structures. In addition, I have a personal, nostalgic reason to write this paper on Tubular Sculptures.

  • Knotmaster Program
    Troop 1776 Knotmaster Program Congratulations on embarking on the Troop 1776 Knotmaster Program! The purpose of the Knotmaster Program is to encourage participants to learn to tie a full range of useful and practical knots. By the time you complete the Black level you will have mastered and have at your disposal at least 37 new knots! Goals Of The Knotmaster Program Provide a process and environment to learn knot skills for rank advancement, merit badges and everyday practical situations. Provide opportunities for one-on-one teaching using the E.D.G.E. method. Continually test knotting skills so they are reinforced and improved. Provide opportunities for mastery and advancement with increasingly challenging knot levels. Recognize self-directed effort and achievement and encourage participation. Program Overview Knots are grouped into increasingly challenging levels comprised of 9 knots each. Once a level is completed the participant receives a colored cord to wear on his Knotmaster Carabiner. These colored cords serve to recognize the participant’s achievement, and to identify him as a learning resource for other participants. Upon starting the program the participant receives a basic introduction, along with a practice rope, progress card and knot sheet. The participant may learn knots in any order, and may learn knots from any level at any time. However, he must advance through the levels sequentially. Progress will be tracked on the Knotmaster Progress Card. Participants in the program are known as Knotters. Those who advance to the Black Level are Knotmasters. Troop 1776 - Knotmaster Knot Signoff When a Knotter feels he has mastered a knot sufficiently to be signed off, he can approach any Knotter or Knotmaster who is at least one level higher and ask to be signed off.

  • Symmetrical Vortex Knots
    Symmetrical Vortex Knots Carlo H. Séquin CS Division, University of California, Berkeley; [email protected] Abstract My goal is to create sculptural models of mathematical knots that exhibit a high degree of symmetry. I start with an arbitrary torus knot and turn it into a circular braid with the same symmetry by selectively reversing some of the displayed crossings in a knot projection along the rotational symmetry axis. In the simplest case, I make the knot completely alternating. The resulting braid can then be draped around a cylinder to result in a classical Turk’s Head Knot. Alternatively, the braid can be fit around a sphere to yield a ball-shaped knot. Different choices for the sequence of over- and under-crossings result in different mathematical knots. The approach can be generalized by choosing an appropriate short braid segment and stitching together a number of identical copies of it. The resulting knots all have the common property that the knot filament travels around the rotational axis in a monotonic manner; I call such knots “Vortex Knots.” Small scale models, about five inches in diameter, have been made by additive manufacturing on a Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) machine. To make a truly artful knot sculpture, a more interesting cross-section, e.g., a crescent shape, is swept along the knot curve, and the plastic maquette is turned into a small bronze sculpture, perhaps embellished with a colorful patina. Possible Knot Symmetries The type of symmetry that mathematical prime knots can exhibit is rather limited [3]. Except for the trivial Unknot, they cannot display simple mirror symmetry [6].
