Quotes:
I first sculpted an ear from a modeling clay, sliced it like a birthday cake and visually “digitized” the sections into Rhino. I used Curve->Freeform->Control Points to draw the section curves. All sections must have the same number of points and the points of all curves must be visually in sync with each other. I rotated the sections in place and used Loft with Closed Smooth option to create the initial ear surface. Rubencito
Steps:
1.Path Curve.
2.Spiral curve (Command: Helix, Around the path curve).
3.Orient the profile curve on the path curve. (Command:OrientOnCrv with Perpendicular option)
4.Sweep along 2 curves, select path & Spiral curves as the rails.(Command:Sweep2)

Basically the idea is to drive the radius of the circles with the distance between the point(s). The circles then use the MIN component and a range factor to limit how big the circles can get as well as the area of influence of each point.
