+=== Methodology ===
+It all started discussions with various Foam members and other creative professionals, the main approach for me from the beginning was a little bit mess. In-order it lead  me to various ideas and millions of idea which bursted into my head. As a designer I used to create beautiful things and it lead me to artifacts which I could show people and reflect on it may be that gave me ideas to create something beautiful.The research on websites also let me enter into cross disciplines which I had an eager to do research in,  but time was a constraint.I also started collaborating with some of the artists to share ideas and also share my research on which lead me to a stable posture where I am now.
+The research on plants started with phyllotaxis understanding the Fibonacci series and the geometrical placement of leaves and petals.The spiral placement, geometry and patterning of plants lead me to explore various spiral relationships. I started taking spirographs as a medium to explore various spiral relationships.Finding old school instruments like spirographs and other graphical instrument was quiet difficult.These instruments has become an historic tool as the computer generated graphics has changed a new perspective.
+The mathematical relations of spirograph where studied and the algorithm to generate various spirographs where done.Various iterations where done in the open source plug in - generative modeling for rhino 3d called grasshopper 3d to achieve an algorithm for spirograph.An archive of various spirographs where made using this algorithm to understand the nature of the spirograph and how it is continuous and how these generated spirographs leads to patterning also was done.The growth of the flower starts with the growth of the petals from the bud relating it to the spirograph relating to the growth of these spirographs through the algorithm was also studied.The linear and non linear spirographs where studied and the patterning of it also was made.One of these spirographs from the archive was taken and it was explode to the ground.
+The exploded view of the spirograph made the dancer to take it it as tool for herself for improvisation.The spirograph placed in the ground was also allowed to know what people reflected towards it.Snapshots where captured from t
