Kudu Horn
I have created a kudu horn inspired by the elegant beauty of the logarithmic spiral equation. Using the computational design tool Beegraphy, I have captured the essence of both mathematical precision and natural form. This design is a tribute to the majestic kudu, a large and powerful African antelope known for its stunning annulated spiral horns.

I enjoy the underlying idea and the generated geometry is very convincing as a Kudo horn. In the provided interface the scale is not entirely clear and there are some issues where I can generate failed geometry, for example through selections of incompatible revolution start/end values. There are additionally some parameters that seem to make little change. It would be good to curate the variables a little more. It's good to see the thickness as a selectable option so that it can be added once a preferred form is generated. What is unfortunately missing is any commentary on fabrication and how this will be created.
Nice proposal with a nice texture. I like the many possibilities and the bumb effect.
