Coral Reef (Diagram+Analysis)


I was looking to coral reefs that how different species interact with them and different species started to live their for ever. It seems that it’s not only one sided interaction but a complete negotiation and this interaction started due to the attraction which corals provide them in terms of moving tentacles and colors. Tentacle size varies in different coral species. Coral reefs don’t have its own colors but it’s the algae which have different colors that house in between the two layers of skin. This algae has a symbiotic relation with corals, Algae absorbs the sun light do the photosynthesis for corals and produce 90% of energy (nutrients) for the corals. And this energy allows the two layers of skin to expand and contract causing the movement of tentacles (yes to catch food also and take to mouth the only opening in corals).
So as I am focusing on skin, that it not only separates the inside and outside of corals but have ornamental and textured qualities and above that the way it correspond to different conditions.

(i also have research on different things like types of corals, soft corals hards corals, which families they belong to, which temperature they live but focus only on those things which i need to move my project futher ahead, so i am just putting those things in blog that might be helpful for my project.)

So I was looking it in terms of event where corals are performers and attractors to different species.

Here than i was looking them in terms of components, that they need to be more dynamic and animated. Ok animted i mean here in terms of its quality of dynamic and it shows its moving but it static to its position...YUP.... but..but... lets see how things proceeds.... as i feel that i am still interested in animation in terms of motion :)

2 or 3 more diagrams in this series are to be made, hopefully they will come out from brain soon :)
but in the mean time i has started exploring components, as those diagrams will based on different component strategies and the final diagram would be the building program that these components will envolpe.
