Moving away from screens to map the friction manually.
Phase 01: Mapping
The goal is to physically set the chart. A screen updates dynamically. A piece of wood stays exactly where you put it.
First, the geometry requires absolute precision. Hand-drawn guidelines dictate the cuts before the laser slices the core structure.
Phase 02: Assembly
The dividers create the boundaries. They have to interlock and rotate freely above the base plate.
Layer.
Intersect.
Build depth.
The tension goes from a 2D circle to a 3D arena. The profile angle reveals the stacked structure containing the 12 zones.
Phase 03: Finishing
Dark matter and light markers.
Hand-painted friction.
A tangible object.
The rotating zodiac outer ring receives its final treatment. Painting the boundaries gives the astrological forces a solid form.
