combinatorial cultures

Prof. William MacDonald | Cornell University | Summer 2010 

This project is augmenting the Elevated Acre by combining culture.

Combination is the method of operation used to combine culture and business, commercial space, parks and views. Combination is the act of combining; when two things are mixed together to make a whole.

The qualities influencing this method of operation are: serene, continuous, agitation, dynamic and combinative.

 The vornoi diagram is used to create this combination of culture.

The vornoi system allows a stronger combination to occur because of the nature of the diagram to recombine shapes/objects through a new set of nodes. The vornoi diagram is determined by distances of a specific set of objects in space, it finds their center point and triangulates the nodes.
