Mosquito

Tools to access streaming vectors maps and data sources such as Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, Google Maps, GeoData, StockMarket

 

...and a bunch of other stuff


Mosquito is a plugin suite developed for Rhino and Grasshopper. The plugin allows us to tap into social , financial and popular media. Extracting location, profiles, images and messages from Facebook,Twitter, Topsy etc….

As architects part of our responsibility is the consideration of the public realm. Today however , people tend to hang in the digital equivalent, namely, social media space. While this space becomes ever more permanent, the physical realm is fleeting, an evanescent space.

We are utilizing the tools in this component suite to bridge the gap between geometrics and information. Driving geometry with data and vice-versa. The ability to extract user Geo-coordinates, language, thoughts, profile and image enables architects to paint a picture. It is this  4-dimensional picture, which we refer to as “spatial condition”, that allows us to explore what happened yesterday, now and hypothesize about tomorrow. True 4-dimensional modeling.

      • Maybe exploring the website code? Is there a link to an image?

      Getting files from the website code can sometimes be difficult, especially on platforms like Twitter/X since it's a social network. Moreover, they use some weird formats that are unnoticeable by many image editors or websites. That's why when you want to get anything from such websites, it's better to read some guides first. For example, there's an article about downloading videos from Twitter: https://setapp.com/how-to/download-twitter-videos-to-your-mac, which you'll definitely find helpful.
