This project is an organic-shaped sculpture consisting of fitted, laser-cut pieces of wood. Although this work does not appear to be created in likeness of any notable object, it was created using an algorithm called the “Rib Script,” which is a formula that produces individual wavy planes. The planes created by the Rib Script were then fitted together through slits cut in the wood.

The Kinetic Creatures above consist of Rory the Rhino, Geno the Giraffe, and Elly the Elephant. This project is a result of the artists’ desire to create something mechanically complex yet accessible to everyone via easy construction with straightforward segments. The pieces for these creatures are laser cut from cardboard, and put together using tabs-and-slots. There is a small wire crank in the side of each kinetic creature, which when manually turned creates a walking motion.
