Rules

How does the structure keeps sound?

- 

How do you get spaces which you can use?

- 

Limitations

- A joint consist out of 3, 4, 5, or 6 sides where the edges can be attatched.
- A joint can close a side so there is no connection possible. 
- A joint can lock an edge if it is nessesary for the stabillity. 
- A joint can open an edge so it can be removed to create more space, or use it somewhere else.

System

The edges can be fixed on one direction, but if there is to much tension it moves along with the rest of the structure.

The joints register the tension and direction of the edges. With this information a joint can lock an edge or give it free, so the structure does not collapse.

The joints 'know' how much the force is on the structure. If the tension is getting to high the structure gives a sign on the place it has to be improved. If this doesn't happen the joints will slowly lower the edges untill the structure is sound again.

It's all a collaboration of the input people give to the system by adding edges and the input the system gives to the users by 'controlling' the possibilities to place the edges.

If the structure is not sound anymore, the structure of Linus connects and support the structure.

Start

The start of a structure is a kubocaeder with edges of 1.8 meter long. Artist from the Kunststad are aked to start adding elements to this artistic structure and expose some of their work here.

Growth

Once the structure becomes more used, other people will start to use it to like for a small theatre, a garden or a lounge.

End

The structure needs to be kept 'alive'. If nobody uses the space and a joint can't hold the force it will slowly whithering away. At the end it 'dies' and leaves hanging structure.

Reuse

The elements left behind by a part of the structure which 'died' can be reused to create another structure somewhere else.
