Tweet 2 Form

A bot by Andrew Heumann that performs parametric geometric operations when someone tweets at it. It understands eleven different formal operations, which is more than enough to produce a wide variety of results. It uses the tweet ID as a seed for the exact parameters it uses, so identical input texts will still produce different outputs.

I gather that the back end is powered by Grasshopper definitions, though I’m not too sure of the details. Still, it’s a good reminder that the CAD/industrial design world has their own tools for generative modeling, and that there’s many opportunities for cross-pollination between that and the more aesthetic, entertainment focused generative community.
