✨ PlatonicAristotelianQuantumX1

"Where Ideal Forms meet Empirical Particles."

Journey through the paradoxes of reality in a single Grasshopper node.

This metaphysical geometry engine fuses the timeless Forms of Plato with the observational rigor of Aristotle, filtered through the shimmering uncertainty of Quantum Theory. Render animated patterns, paradoxical wave-forms, and cosmic truth-curves—all in one node.

Features:

• 🔷 Platonic Lattices: Symmetric, harmonic, and idealized structures
• 🔶 Aristotelian Field Responses: Directional vector logic guided by empirical data
• 🌀 Quantum Harmonic Trails: Probabilistic trigonometric curves shaped by waveform logic
• 💬 Philosophical toggles: Choose your cosmology: "Ideal", "Empirical", or "Entangled"
• 🎞️ Animated Time parameter for dynamic metaphysical visualization

Brought to you by Wickerson Studios — where geometry thinks.

🧰 INSTALLATION + USAGE GUIDE

✅ Requirements:

• Rhino 7 or 8
• Grasshopper
• Visual Studio 2022 (.NET Framework 4.8)
• Basic familiarity with loading .gha assemblies

📦 STEP 1: COMPILE THE COMPONENT

1. Open Visual Studio 2022
2. Create a Class Library (.NET Framework) project
3. Set target framework to .NET Framework 4.8
4. Add references:

• RhinoCommon.dll
• Grasshopper.dll
• (Optional) System.Drawing for icon

1. Paste in the full C# code for PlatonicAristotelianQuantumX1
2. Confirm unique:

• Namespace
• Class name
• Component GUID

1. Compile → Output .dll

🔁 STEP 2: LOAD INTO GRASSHOPPER

1. Rename your compiled file:
2. CopyEdit
3. PlatonicAristotelianQuantumX1.gha
4. Copy it into the Grasshopper Libraries folder:
5. makefile
6. CopyEdit
7. C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper\Libraries\
8. Restart Rhino and open Grasshopper
9. You’ll find the node under:
10. makefile
11. CopyEdit
12. Tab: WickersonStudios

🧪 STEP 3: RUN THE SCRIPT

• Set the Ontology input to:
• "platonic" – ideal geometric harmony
• "aristotelian" – empirical field response
• "quantum" – entangled trigonometric probabilism
• Adjust:
• Time with an animated slider
• Density, Amplitude, Phase, Seed
• Outputs:
• PointCloud (structured metaphysics)
• Vectors (logical metaphysical gradients)
• Curves (quantum philosophical trajectories)
• Insight (dynamically chosen wisdom)
