Individual project: Nike Blouse
The dress design is more interesting than a chip design (to my opinion ;). It is very individual and very fashionable. We want to follow the fashion, don’t we?
On another hand, a broad range of variable forms can be important for an artificial life. I play with DNA like with my Barbie doll.
The idea was to knit a nice blouse for Barbie without any boundary conditions. I used two methods of knitting:
1) rectangular merge pattern, and
2) staggered merge pattern
In the terms of Paul Rothemund. The first one is simpler for understanding; the second one is more practical for patterning. Only if you used the staggered merge pattern, you can put all hairpins onto one side of the knitted DNA sheet with a maximal density.
Have a look on the pictures:
(More details will be available soon)
I use the fork hairpin [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J35001 BBa_J35001 ] to create the Nike-logo pattern.
