14. Medial Axis
1.3.14. medial axis

DESCRIPTION
The “voronoi” button is probably the most widely and inappropriately used and abused function standardly available in Grasshopper. One of its most useful applications, however, is to derive curve’s medial axis. This is the centreline that can be seen as the “spine” of the geometry. Especially e.g. in animation these curves are useful to create the animated skeletons that have the geometry as a skin wrapped around them.
This exercise is using Grasshopper version 1.0.0007
