ed by the NTUA School of Architecture. In its urban context, Athens presents a challenging mixture of historical diversity and current developing territories in the outskirts of the city.
During this process, participants will have the opportunity to experience the historical, contemporary, and geographical diversity of Athens during studio trips, while challenging the conventional design approach in order to break the dichotomy between the building and the urban realm.
The extreme spatial dimension of verticality will be tested through an online platform linking the workshop with AA Istanbul Visiting School which is taking horizontality as its agenda.
Deadline: 10 March 2012.

large scale prototyping techniques. The programme continues to build on its expertise on complex architectural design and fabrication processes, relying heavily on materiality and performance. Autumn DLAB brings together a range of experts – tutors and lecturers – from internationally acclaimed academic institutions and practices, Architectural Association, Zaha Hadid Architects, among others.
The research generated at Autumn DLAB has been published in international media – ArchDaily, Archinect, Bustler – and peer-reviewed conference papers, including SimAUD (Simulation in Architecture and Urban Design), eCAADe (Education and research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe).
Autumn DLAB investigates on the correlations between form, material, and structure through the rigorous implementation of computational methods for design, analysis, and fabrication, coupled with analog modes of physical experimentation and prototype making. Each cycle of the programme devises custom-made architectural processes through the creation of novel associations between conventional and contemporary design and fabrication techniques. The research culminates in the design and fabrication of a one-to-one scale prototype realized by the use of robotic fabrication techniques, with the aim of integrating of form-finding, material computation, and structural performance.
The programme is structured in two stages:
PART 1 – participants are introduced to core concepts of material processes, computational methods and digital fabrication techniques. Basic and advanced tutorials on computational design and analysis tools are provided. The programme performs as a team-based workshop promoting collaboration, research and ‘learning-by-experimentation’.
PART 2 – participants propose design interventions based on the skills and knowledge gained during phase 1 and supported by scaled study models and prototypes. The fabrication and assembly of a full-scale architectural intervention with the use of robotic fabrication techniques will then unify the design goals of the programme.
Applications
1) A limited number of 10 places are available. To apply, please send a small portfolio (5MB) to the Visiting School Office.2) PARTIAL SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE.

ientas digitales en el proceso de diseño desde una postura de conocimiento aplicado. Así, a partir del aprendizaje de herramientas digitales y lenguajes de programación específicos, en paralelo a una constante reflexión entorno al origen de estas herramientas y su uso, se crea una plataforma de experimentación y definición de aplicaciones reales sensibles al contexto social, técnico y económico donde serán usadas.
Diferentes perfiles, diferentes búsquedas, un sólo enfoque. Respondiendo a ésta premisa, proponemos un programa de educación especializada diseñado a partir de una estructura flexible y de amplio espectro, donde la obtención del grado depende de un número de créditos acumulados al cursar cuatro de los ocho talleres optativos y dos talleres obligatorios. Dichos talleres, agrupados en tres categorías (Herramientas digitales, Exploración aplicada y Proyecto síntesis) tienen como objetivo otorgar un conocimiento práctico de ciertas herramientas digitales, técnicas constructivas y estrategias teóricas, para formar un criterio propio entorno a su uso y aplicación.…

rametriche all’interno del processo progettuale, approfondendo l’utilizzo di Grasshopper in sinergia con plug-in, software di analisi ambientale e simulazione fisica. Obiettivo fondamentale è la generazione della forma come risultato di tecniche di form-finding e di input ambientali (solari, termici e acustici). Verranno acquisiti nuovi strumenti operativi e di simulazione al fine di costruire modelli parametrici ottimizzati in grado di adattarsi a diverse condizioni di contesto.

ape of the Gatorade Run – Fun Race Machine(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8RIMVhdgIk), and the interactive digitally informed Nike + Fuelband-Wristband Interactive Video-Mapping Projection Concert at at Battersea Power Station(https://vimeo.com/70791746), the AA Visiting School Rio de Janeiro 10-day intensive workshop will focus on how sports infrastructure can be informed and transformed by scanned body data so to both illustrate and improve human athletic capacity and interactively engage the spectator. Students will use theTokyo 2020 Olympic stadium as a testing ground for the creation of a new type of intelligent and interactive sports architecture. The workshop will teach eyeball and brain scanning, interactive coding, and parametric digital design and fabrication using Rhino and Grasshopper, to create a post-robotic morphing between the sensibility of the body and novel computational innovation, between Rio de Janeiro 2016 and Tokyo 2020. All software will be taught from beginning level, no previous experience needed.

Especially when there are multiple rules acting at the same time it gets really confusing.
For example:
Rule 1 = 2FF[+1]
Rule 2 = F[1]-2
From what (i think) i understand in general,
Step 1 reads rule 1.
Step 2 reads rule 1 then rule 2.
Step 3 reads rule 1 then rule 2 then rule 1
Step 4 reads rule 1 then rule 2 then rule 1 then rule 2...
But in this case rule 2 involves rule 1. How do i read it?
Another thing is when there are multiple seeds, how does it affect the rules?
For example:
A = 1
1 = F+F
AA = ?
A-A = ?
Hopefully i explained my question clearly.
Help is very much appreciated!…
nd the power of the combination with Galapagos. Since everyone here is a user, you are all well aware of how powerful the tool is.
What I was wondering was if anyone has published or is aware of any papers relevant to my field of study. I have watched a few presentations by various (David, Jon and Daniel at AA for example) but was wondering if any further work has been done that I have not encountered.
Unfortunately I am not a member of many of the organisations some of you would have presented for (i.e. IASS). However if you have published a paper with any institute I am sure I can track it down.
Thanks for any light you can shine in advance, and I hope to be publishing my modules soon as a tool for other to learn from. Hopefully in the form of a blog (should life not intervene first.)
Thanks in advance,

diseño, construcción y entendimiento de nuestro entorno.
BIM está poniendo a disposición de los diseñadores y gestores auténticas bases de datos que pueden generarse, conectarse y editarse de forma paramétrica, proporcionando una sólida capa de realidad a los ejercicios de diseño generativo y computación que son objeto de estudio en Algomad, el seminario que busca popularizar la programación y la parametrización en el diseño y en la experiencia de nuestro entorno construido.
Tras un paréntesis en 2015, Algomad vuelve con el objetivo de demostrar cómo una visión computacional del BIM es una oportunidad para mejorar la forma de trabajar de ingenieros, arquitectos, constructoras y operadores de edificios e infraestructuras, tendiendo un puente entre las técnicas de diseño digital más avanzadas y la realidad de la construcción.
Algomad 2016 tendrá lugar en el centro de Madrid, en IE School of Architecture and Design, IE University, los días 3, 4 y 5 de Noviembre de 2016 y comprenderá 4 talleres así como ponencias a cargo de expertos de primer nivel.
Estructura de Algomad 2016
Algomad 2016 se estructura en torno a tres áreas temáticas principales:
BIM, como la metodología total específica para el sector de la construcción.
Computación, englobando las aplicaciones de programación y parametrización al diseño de edificios e infraestructuras.
Realidad, como marco de trabajo, buscando siempre resolver problemas reales a través de los dos puntos anteriores.
Público objetivo
Arquitectos, arquitectos técnicos, ingenieros y en general académicos, estudiantes de últimos cursos y profesionales del mundo inmobiliario y de la construcción que compartan un interés por la digitalización de nuestro sector. Se espera un nivel mínimo en el uso de herramientas BIM y de parametrización. Algomad proporcionará formación adicional y gratuita en las herramientas básicas a emplear en los talleres para asegurar un correcto desempeño.…
