Hey, I thought, why shouldn’t also the graphic of this website come from a script? So, this is it: you can adjust or change the processing code to your needs and make your own waves. All it takes is a working version of processing.

Hey Giulio, very nice site! Just wanted to drop a line, since we haven’t heard since my Sept Rhino training.
Hope you’re doing well.

Dear Giulio
Congratulations for your works.. !!! I am impressed!!!!
I heard about your work from a student of you from SETEC engineering. He told me you are an excellent teacher of rhinoscript and grasshopper. Guess what, i am looking for that kind of education…
So, if I am interested in, what should i do?

Hi Giulio,
Absolutely loving your grasshopper animation tool!! But one question…
How did you assign which planet had which material? How would this be done for a large number of geometry?
Thanks Michael

Hi Micheal,
thanks. It’s just list management in Grasshopper. First element to first color, second to second, and so forth. Hope this helps!

Hello,
I knew you via Scott Leinweber. I’m an architecture student in Paris and I’m looking forward to control GH via a midi controller.
Could you help me?
Regards!

Hi Sinan,
I do not have enough knowledge on this field nor have a midi controller to test with, so it will be difficult…
You could try with Andy Payne’s FireFly, have a look here.

Hi,
I am new to Rhino and grasshopper,. I have been learning GH from the blogs,.. I recently found your render animation component, and was trying to use it in my definition, but having a hard time making it work in my definition,
Could you please share some knowledge about how to use that component, I would like to mail you my definition, But I didn’t find your email on the site, you can email me to the above email address,..so that I can reply you with my definition.
Thanks a lot,..

Hello Giulio,
I got an error message while i’m trying to use UDP Receiver component in GH. I never got that message before. I really can’t fix it. The message is : “error: Only on usage of each socket adress (protocol/network adress/port) is normally permitter (line: 0).
It’s getting this while i’m trying to stream arduino data into GH via processing with udp library.
Do you got an idea?
Regards.

This is a current limitation and I’m thinking about ways to solve it. Yes, it just means that the port is already opened.
You can only use one port at the time, therefore you have to remember to always close the port by setting it to -1.
After the problem has happened, you have to restart Rhino.

Hi Giulio,
Thank you for making this available….It has been a great weekend playing these definitions. I was wondering if Laplacian features are available to work inside Grasshopper?
Thanks in advance for your time!
Best,

Hi Doug, thank you for your message. I’ll make the icons available in Grasshopper, too, in the next small update.
