Intermediate Grasshopper Workshop

An intermediate Grasshopper full 3-day workshop introduces advanced parametric modeling using Grasshopper, a visual programming plugin for Rhino. Participants learn to create and manipulate geometry through algorithmic design, exploring data types, lists, data trees, and common components. Workshops often include hands-on exercises and projects to solidify understanding and practical application.

ABOUT

As part of the OA2017 an intermediate Grasshopper workshop was be held by architect and computational designerAndrea Graziano, Co-de-iT member & Co-founder.

“the Basis of the Universe Isn’t Matter or Energy … It’s Data” – James Gleick – WIRED

The space in which we live can be monitored in many aspects and it appears as a flux, a gradient of data in continuous evolution and change. Our understanding of surrounding environment is improving every day due to our ability to scan and sample the environment around us at increasing resolution using better technologies and sensors. Hence the space is revealed as a ever changing data field and our cap-ability to act and design the space itself can be enhanced by the use of tools able to inform better the design processes with more accurate, specific and variable, in space and time, data streams ad patterns.

inFORMation is an intermediate Grasshopper workshop about data embodiment strategies and advanced mesh modeling techniques.

Grasshopper is actually a powerful information processor that provides the basis to develop possible strategies to inFORM digital matter morphologies by specific set of data conditions. The workshop focuses on integrating information processing into digital systems to enable the formation of structures, from the very simple up to more complex ones. The aim is to give an understanding of information and data articulation as a spatial and architectural operations.

We will explore the use of Grasshopper to define algorithmical procedures aimed to express highly complex structures informed by different conditions at different scales and levels of details. We will learn by play that information is matter substance.

AGENDA

Day 1
Mesh components proliferation, data tree, mesh & subdivision tools, mesh tessellation, attractors logics, mesh displacement

Day 2
Data tree – advanced methods, non-standard tessellation, vector fields logic, bundling technique, kangaroo & mesh, mesh relaxation, mesh differential relaxation, marching cubes technique

Day 3
Design tutored work (project development)

Software & Skills requirements
3D modeling skills in Rhino3D and basic Grasshopper are required.
Participants should bring their own laptop running Windows with pre-installed Rhino3D software and latest Grasshopper plugin version.

TUTOR

Andrea Graziano is an architect and computational designer, member and co-founder of Co-de-iT – Computational Design Italy, currently engaged in teaching international workshops about computational design, digital tools and robotic fabrication in architectural design, lecturing and consultancy work. He runs the internationally renowned digitAG& blog about generative and computational design and scripting techniques in architecture. Andrea acts as an active catalyst through his intense activity of social networking of the paradigm-shift in the fields of architectural research, computation and science. A ‘digital explorer’ and ‘knowmad’ aiming to research, curate and envision the rapid evolution of science, technology, art and philosophy, their possible convergence and tooling into design and architecture.

ABOUT

Fifth International Multimedia Event ON ARCHITECTURE 2017 The themes of the multimedia event ON ARCHITECTURE are promoting quality design and healthy environment, which improves the life of resident citizens and visitors, with attractive living places. It is what makes an exciting, vibrant city that offers knowledge about new trends in quality design and healthy environment.

Multimedia project is carried out with the aim of continuing education throughout the year in several events/ activities #KeynoteTalks 15 September 2017, #Workshop 15-17 September 2017, #Conference 7-8 December 2017, #Exhibition 6-16 December 2017.

At Multimedia Event ON ARCHITECTURE 2017 following topics will be in focus: I – Complexity and Architecture, II – Reworking the City Through New Architecture, III – Facing the Future, IV – Innovation in Art, Architecture, Science and Technology in Digital Era

These themes will consider substance of architecture through all its dimensions always thinking of it as an art and technology. The substance will be discussed regarding various points, processes and trends that contribute to new aesthetic and funcionalism: globalization, new approaches to design, innovative technologies, projects and materials.
