Surface between Edges (Minimal Surface)

Grasshopper
1

Hello Guys,
is there a smarter way to model this surface between these circles? At the end the plan is to realize it with a net/mesh (10x10cm) structure. So in the second step it would be nice to simulate a fabric, like minimal surface.

It also need to work if i increase the amount of circles.

I would be very happy about a feedback. Thanks.

Here’s one way to get the minimal surface spanning these curves:

Or a different way to do it with a quad mesh:

REGARDING FILE minsurf_mesh.gh
Hi Daniel,

thanks a lot. There are unrecognized objects in my definition. Is there a plugin which i need to install, or is there something missing in my standard tools?
