Data driven Archimedean spiral in OpenScad and Python

This sculpture of sorts is my attempt at building a physical representation of an input data source. I chose the Archimedean spiral because it is compact and aesthetically pleasing. In this example, I am rendering speed data from a car journey where height represents speed throughout the journey.

OpenScad is not able to read data files directly so it had to be done by creating a library containing the data vector (list of variables). This library file is then imported into the Openscad script
