#3StrandBraids #FlowOnSurface

In the top-left, the highlighted magenta portion shows the interface between the #braids assembly and the #IonicScroll from https://pixelfed.social/p/Splines/795276076797088402.

Extract the #profileCurve shown as ABC in the top-right where the interface meets the scroll.

In https://pixelfed.social/p/Splines/794199123072358090, we rebuilt curves from 2nd-degree arcs to 3rd-degree NURBS for smoothness and swept the scroll surface one set of arcs at a time.

Now we have to flow braids on a single surface in one operation. So we need to combine the separate segments into a single NURBS curve. To do that, #explode the profile curve into individual segments, discard the straight portion, and join the curved portions.

Curves and surfaces have a #direction that you can change in the #CAD tool. Check that the direction of the joined curve is A to C, not C to A, and flip it if necessary. Then divide the curve at 120 units starting at A. This is marked by point B. Split the curve AC at B so that AB is 120 units long.

At this point AB is still made up of 5 segments, and exploding it would again decompose the curve into separate segments. So #rebuild AB as a single NURBS curve with 32 sections.

#Extrude AB to get a 48 units wide surface shown in magenta in the top-right. Point D is at the midpoint of AE and lies on the XZ plane.

Slice the channel assembly so that it is 8 units tall, 6 of which will be above the #tectonicSurface for the braid and 2 below. The tectonic surface is shown in the bottom-left as the flat magenta surface on the channel and the curved magenta surface for the scroll neck.

Flow the entire braid and channel assembly along the curved surface lining up points A, D, and E. For the vertical part on the side of the capital, just use the 33 unit tall block from https://pixelfed.social/p/Splines/799340150182400358 and bury 1 unit inside the #ovolo.

This concludes 3-strand braids. Only the non-essential #column #flutes remain.

Why am I even talking about any of this?

Because, to remain #hopeful, it's good to talk about not just the horror of our #society, our #security, and our very #dignity being stripped away from us by the #plutarchy, we have to talk about the world we want to build when they are eventually defeated.

If you don't have a destination in mind, you can't know which #direction to place your next footstep. If you keep your eyes fixed only on the ground, you will walk in circles.

#boulot Me voici intégré à un groupe de travail sur #IA .
Je suis le seul à ne pas occuper un poste de #direction et aussi le seul à avoir fait du terrain avec des vrais gens et pas des fichiers #excel .
Officiellement je ne fais plus de #mednum
Il y a moyen que je cause #culturenumerique et #InegalitesSociales . On se replonge dans le #cafeIA du @cnnum en attendant cafeia.org/organiser-un-cafe-i

A quotation from Judith Martin

That it is expedient to kill a king, rather than wait for his natural demise, is something a populace can come to accept, perhaps to relish. That the people’s own customs and costumes are to be radically changed by edict, rather than being allowed to evolve haphazardly and linger sentimentally beyond their time, is not. Yet messing with the national etiquette is one of the great spoils of revolutionary success.

Judith Martin (b. 1938) American author, journalist, etiquette expert [a.k.a. Miss Manners]
