So, I’m working on overcoming a basic fear of heights… arch heights, that is. I mean, arches are supposed to be really strong architectural elements, right? But what about a series of arches over a commercial fast food drive-thru? Different story. I can just imagine the Christmas Vacation / National Lampoon-like Saturday Night Live worthy skits that could find their way onto YouTube faster than the police could get there... No thank you!
Anyway, here’s a basic example of some leaping arches being tested.
Basic Arch designs have between 4-12 controller channels. 7-8 seem optimal. Some prefer the "odd" numbered channels for their being a "middle". I frankly don't care, and the symmetry of 8 (4 each side) and the basic controller setups of 16 make for a nice even 2 arches per controller. (or 2 colors per 1 arch, etc.)
Here's a sample of arches in action... Music Box Dancer http://vimeo.com/2596923 You can really see the arches in action!
