Procedural Newton’s Pendulum

Made in Maya 2024 using Python
This project is a procedural reinterpretation of a Newton’s Pendulum, featuring hexagonal holographic glass elements suspended from a custom-built frame. The entire setup, including motion, was created using expressions and code, with no keyframe animation, allowing the system to remain fully procedural and adjustable. The goal was to recreate a familiar physical object while adding a stylized twist through non-traditional materials. Replacing the classic metal spheres with hexagonal holographic glass allowed for exploration of light, refraction, and color interaction while maintaining recognizable pendulum motion.
