assignment 06 - powerful replication

This iteration tests the capacity to control the powercopy using an external framework. This is a simple version of an attractor point type definition, describing a method in which the distance between two points can drive variables within the powercopy. There are probably more simple ways to do this, though.

For the first iteration, powercopy is used to populate a single geometrical set across a variable 9-square grid. The first iteration is conducted with a flat geometry and four corner points as the inputs for powercopy aggregation.


This next iteration takes a more complex geometry and begins to incorporate variables to drive the height of the center aperture. All planes remain 'planar', anticipating the possibilities of an 'unroll' operation in the future.


Each part is distributed differently based on surface curvature and distances between corner points of the initial four inputs.
