GEOMETRY / THE SHAPE OF A POSSIBILITY
Landmark Loom.
Explore Puerto Rico and the world, then weave a sourced geometric study into a web.
THE POSSIBILITY OF A THREAD
El Morro
San Juan, Puerto Rico · geometric study
Readouts describe the target geometry. Connection does not mean strength. The transformation changes thread lengths; it is not a simulation of conserved material.
Keep the idea. Keep the evidence.
A drawing to share. A model to use. A study you can return to.
What if matter
could explain itself?
Do more than ask for a shape. Ask for a behavior. See the possibilities, understand the cost, and choose what deserves to exist.
Start here: change a form, compare it, preserve the evidence.Rehearse a possible world.
Imagine a shelter that finds a form for its climate, terrain, available material, and the people inside. Every proposal would carry its assumptions and a test you could repeat.
Today this instrument computes geometric changes and graph connectivity. Validated simulation, actuators, fabrication, and measurements are the path toward that larger idea.
The person behind the project
A note from Luis.
Puerto Rico is home. El Morro, Arecibo, Los Morrillos and Parque de Bombas give this geometric sketchbook a personal starting point. The open atlas separates sourced location records from original shape interpretations.
Who it helps
People exploring the relationship between a place, its sources and its geometry.
Try this
Choose El Morro in the atlas and weave it. Remember its shape, change the height, then compare it with the blue outline.
