SUMMARY:Eugene Parametric Society #6 (repeat)
DESCRIPTION:Greetings and welcome to the Eugene Parametric Society in 
 2010.\n\nEugene Parametric Society #6 (repeat, because we didn't make 
 the #6 happen in November)\nJanuary 12th, 2009\nLawrence RM 279\n8pm -
  10pm\n\nMeeting Agenda:\n\n1) Discuss what the group would like to le
 arn this term through our regular scheduled meetings. Topics include t
 he priority and sequence of Grasshopper exercises we would like to exp
 lore during the winter term from http://www.digitaltoolbox.info/grassh
 opper_basic.html and Processing tutorials from the Processing Handbook
  I received from MIT.\n\n2) Watch the Matt Storus Church Machine video
  and have a discussion about parametric and generative tools in design
 .\nIf you have a chance, please read the following article by Tim Love
  called Between Mission Statement and Parametric Model at:\nhttp://pla
 ces.designobserver.com/entry.html?entry=10757\n\n3) Discuss a possible
  design build project over the following winter and spring terms using
  the skill set this group is developing. Conversation led by Chris Nie
 lson (please see comments below for a brief backstory)\n\n4) Discuss p
 ossible applied research and design work for the National Conference o
 n the Beginning Design Student paper, Machine Craft and the Contempora
 ry Designer: exploring parameters and variables through making physica
 l artifacts. I wrote the attached abstract and submitted it for the co
 nference the past fall and it was accepted. To continue with the resea
 rch I need to assemble a team of students that will help explore the p
 rinciples I set forth by making physical objects with the cnc router. 
 In exchange for helping with the research I will show participants how
  to use the cnc router, how to author machine code and provide you wit
 h the cnc controller interface software necessary to simulate machine 
 movements. Not to mention, your work will be sited in the research pap
 er I present at the conference at UNC Charlotte in March. More tomorro
 w night, of course.\n\nThank you for your interest and I hope to see y
 ou there.\n\nSincerely,\n\nErik Hegre\n\n\nChris Nielson Reply by Euge
 ne Parametric Society on January 7, 2010 at 12:02pm\n\nAll,\n\nIn resp
 onse to Erik, who requested that I describe my intentions in a design-
 build project and to the article posted (definitely required reading f
 or this group) I propose that we begin development of a project that s
 pans the realm of \"sustainable social\" architecture and parametric d
 esign. The particulars of such a design do need to be made concrete, a
 nd it will be important to define the goals of such a project.\n\nTher
 efore, I would suggest that this serve as a forum for the next few wee
 ks for those interested in producing a built project. I agree with Nic
 o that it may not be feasible to create the built piece, whatever it m
 ay be, this term; however we should have the groundwork and a plan in 
 place by the end of the next 10 weeks.\n\nEither way, I would ask that
  everyone who is interested to please provide as many concepts to this
  forum to begin a discussion. If you are indeed interested, please sub
 mit goals that this project could achieve (energy, socially, aesthetic
 ally, economically, related) and perhaps what you envision the project
  to physically be (shading device, public bench, water catchment, inte
 ractive thermal contraption, etc . . . )\n\nI look forward to hearing 
 your thoughts!\n\nCheers,\nChristopher\n\nFor more information visit h
