Dendritas is a 3d printed flower planter / household container and part of a generative design research exploring the intersection of art, science and mathematics. Dendrites are part of Diffusion-Limited Aggregation, introduced in 1981 by Witten and Sander, a fractal growth algorithmic model which produces forms frequently found in living and non-living nature. Forms produced are similar to certain corals, crystals, brains, tree roots, veins, etc. Dendritas was recently exhibited in 'Santurce es Ley 5', a local Puertorican art festival. Fabrication files include two .stl files for two iterations but due to the nature of how the geometry is generated, each piece is unique.
