Half Edge Wowza!
Recently I met the bright and creative Jan Vantomme . He showed me some stuff using the Hemesh library for processing made by the friendly Frederik Vanhoutte (w:blut). After reading up on the core data structure which is used by Hemesh I picked up my project from a half year ago where I started implementing Half Edge. I've been interested in generative form for a while and used custom solutions to apply basic operations to meshes; but now, finally I implemented/ported most parts of the Hemesh library of Frederik. Half Edge is actually a really nice, simple structure which makes it easy to perform operations on 3D meshes. Especially with the great, clean written Hemesh library I was ready to go in a couple of hours... and a sleepless saterday night. As soon as I've got little more time.. (I'm in the middle of deadlines at the moment)... I will finish the library and will probably release it as a addon for openFameworks.
