Assignment Concept

For Assignment 1 I have chosen to do my work based around the random assortment in nature. To come to this concept I saw dew drops on a small spiraling plant and the effect created is something I have never seen before. 

Articles:

This article discusses patterns within nature, although its not exactly what I'm looking at doing it is extremely similar. As you look through the images within the article it shows how many patterns there are in the natural world and how from the simplest of things, patterns can evolve.

This article refers to a book being developed on the development of software being used to generate the most random of patterns and amongst these comes nature. The patterns and book are known as "Chaos" which is a strange way of defining patterns that are rarely seen twice. With random assortment added to the equation these patterns never will repeat andi believe that being able to create something that may only be seen once in life is quite an amazing experience.

The concept of the spiderweb is relatively simple and a fairly common technique used in this first task, so to do it differently, I found a web covered in dew. With this effect it adds another level of depth but I still think my first concept with the idea of the spiraling plant is more complex and a better challenge for task 1.
This image represents the design concept I am going to follow for my task, Jeremy has shown me the basic way of making  3D structure have a large form at one end and a smaller form at the other end. So I have the idea that I will make a spiral shaped object similar to this plant with the random dew points as spheres on my design.
