SUMMARY:Architectural Association (AA) Summer DLAB 2015
DESCRIPTION:\nAA Summer DLAB experiments with the integration of algor
 ithmic / generative design methodologies and large scale digital fabri
 cation tools. Summer DLAB, RED, will explore the phenomenon of decay i
 n nature. By investigating the process of decay across various scales,
  we will formulate rules of generating decomposition as our design res
 earch area. These rules will evolve into design strategies for the cre
 ation and fabrication of a large-scale prototype. The design and fabri
 cation process will be informed by the use of robotic fabrication tech
 niques.\nThe three-week long programme is formulated as a two-phase pr
 ocess. During the two-week initial phase, participants benefit from th
 e unique atmosphere and facilities of AA’s London home. The second p
 hase, lasting for a week, shifts to AA’s woodland site in Hooke Park
  and revolves around the fabrication and assembly of a full-scale arch
 itectural intervention.\nProminent Features of the programme:\n• Tea
 ching team: Participants engage in an active learning environment wher
 e the large tutor to student ratio (5:1) allows for personalized tutor
 ials and debates.\n• Facilities: AA Digital Prototyping Lab (DPL) of
 fers laser cutting, CNC milling, and 3d printing facilities. The facil
 ities at AA Hooke Park allow for the fabrication of one-to-one scale p
 rototypes with a 3-axis CNC router, various woodworking power tools, a
 nd robotic fabrication.\n• Computational skills: The toolset of Summ
 er DLAB includes but is not limited to Rhinoceros, Processing, Grassho
 pper, and various analysis tools.\n• Theoretical understanding: The 
 dissemination of fundamental design techniques and relevant critical t
 hinking methodologies through theoretical sessions and seminars forms 
 one of the major goals of Summer DLAB.\n• Professional awareness: Pa
 rticipants ranging from 2nd year students to PhD candidates and full-t
 ime professionals experience a highly-focused collaborative educationa
 l model which promotes research-based design and making.\n• Fabricat
 ion: According to the specific agenda of each year, a one-to-one scale
  prototype is fabricated and assembled by design teams.\n• Lecture s
 eries: Taking advantage of its unique location, London, Summer DLAB cr
 eates a vibrant atmosphere with its intense lecture programme.\nEligib
 ility: The workshop is open to architecture and design students and pr
 ofessionals worldwide.\nAccreditation: Participants receive the AA Vis
 iting School Certificate with the completion of the Programme.\nApplic
 ations: The AA Visiting School requires a fee of £1964 per participan
 t, which includes a £60 Visiting Membership fee. A deposit of £381 i
 s required when registering with the online form. The deadline for app
 lications is 20 July 2015. No portfolio or CV is required. Online appl
