Procedural modelling tools
Moritz Moeller writes to tell us her has added RIB export to the modelling tool Structure Synth and the tree generation program Arbaro. Structure Synth is a procedural modelling tool similar to the 2d procedural tools Processing, Shoebot, Drawbot, and Nodebox.
Update – Lukas Vojir has used Processing to make monsters!

I have actually not had time to check in any changes I made into the Arbaro SVN. Anyone who wants to have a play with this, drop me a mail to arbarao AT virtualritz.com and I send you a package incl. source.

I finally found time to check in my RenderMan-savvy Arbaro version.
It is located in the Arbaro SVN repository under /branches/oxybot.
To build & run:
svn co https://arbaro.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/arbaro arbaro
cd arbaro/branches/oxybot
ant
java -Xms1000m -Xmx1000m -jar arbaro.jar # run with 1GB stack for complex trees
