EmergentDesignGroup "MOSS" - Morphogenetic surface structure an exploration of Lindenmeyer based surface growth grammars in a 3D environment with forces. Results were then prototyped using lasercutter.
My contribution was to come up with a concept for a surface solution that could be prototyped and assist in programming the tool as well as produce the documentation.
An recent article in PRAXIS wrongly credits me with being the author of MOSS, I was just a contributor.
