Abstract
The paper presents a framework for parametric and generative design based on shape grammars, implemented inside a 3d animation tool. A simple description is given on how animation works, along with parity features between shape grammars and animation tools. Work covered in previous papers by the writer, namely how the designer constructs individual tools from simple animation mechanisms is here expanded in a framework of algebras that not only function in geometric dimensions but also in time.
