Inspired by mechanical parts and screws, this video imagines a floating "light device." The parametric design was created in Rhino and Grasshopper and each individual light was rendered over time in Maxwell.  I wanted to explore different ways light could be manipulated by material and time to create a beautiful cascading effect.
The elements used in this animation were inspired by the mechanical joint shown above.  This joint was deconstructed into separate elements that were then deformed across spatial parameters to create a new shape.
