Hi guys..
MODELUR – A parametric Urban Design tool that helps you to quickly create and test different urban design alternatives inside SketchUp. PhotoSketch – Enables you to build 3D models of existing urban structures from 2D photographs. Keyframe Animation – Animate your SketchUp model by adding movement to any object. Tinkercad is a free online collection of software tools that help people all over the world think, create and make. We’re the ideal introduction to Autodesk, the leader in 3D design, engineering and entertainment software.
I attach some images of my on going experiment with DC as parametric design tool.
I hope to share DC's uncovered but great potential in designing NOT in modifying your components.
To someone who concerns parametric things, I think, these images would be interesting.
(Yes I am also the one who concerns parametric things )
Enjoy and tell me how do you think~
These 3 images mimic bamboo mat's structure which is used in many Asia countries. Look at this picture. I made something like landscape with real Bamboo mat. This mat inspired me to model with DC.

This curved wall is made of bricks. Real-size brick components not image mapping. With only one push/pull of a little circle on surface of the brick component makes third green one.
You can see more and lager images on my blog http://taekle.blogspot.com/2010/08/blog-post_28.html
And these 2 image show another movement of components in height by mathematic functions.

Last 3 images are example of attractor thing. Accordance with the distance of specific point, the height or the size of components varies. When the LenZ=0, second model becomes first one.

Like other real parametric tools, with DC, you can also make some patterns you conceive or do form-findings you can't imagine. It's possible, I think.
Only problem is the limitation of DC environment.(DC is not modified for designing) I hope there would be some considerable improvements for DESIGING.
I am still experimenting another possibility of DC and when something has come out I will introduce here again.
I attach 3 SKU files of 4models in zip.
