BUILDING THE INVISIBLEInforming Digital Design with Real World Data
THE PREMISEVast streams of data offer a rich resource for designers. By incorporating external information into our design processes the autonomy of the design is challenged. User data, energy calculations, embedded sensing, material and structural simulation, human behaviour and perception, particle flows and force fields allows design to be situated and responsive. From the simulation of megacities to the solid modelling of material systems, design has the potential to be informed by the real. Design sits not separate from is environment but inhabits an ecological system, open, dynamic and interdependent, diverse, partially self-organising, adaptive, and fragile. Across scale and within time we now have the chance to instil architecture with an immanent intelligence creating new relationships between the user, the built and its ecosphere.THE OPPORTUNITYSystems theorists suggest that data is only a raw material. It can be differentiated from information, knowledge and wisdom. Understanding is multi-levelled: understanding of relations, understanding of patterns, understanding of principles. As digital designers our challenge is in harnessing the power of computation to assist us in informing our design process. Computers help us collect, manage and analyse the environment and inform us about an abundance of data. Our challenge is to use these inputs in a meaningful way to help us make better informed design decisions.THE AIMSG 2011 explores how the incorporation of real world data challenges existing design thinking. The SG 2011 workshop aim is to create physical prototypes of design systems to be exhibited in the SG2011 exhibition.
The SmartGeometry Group is a not-for-profit educational organization dedicated to the use of computational tools in architecture and engineering. SG brings professionals, academics, and industry together to explore the next generation of digital design. SG Workshops are non-platform specific, believing it is the methodology, not the tool, that matters.

ne – power of the many è un corso advanced level che studia la produzione di effetti complessi a partire dalla modellazione di comportamenti semplici su un insieme strutturato con un numero alto di elementi. Attraverso un approccio generico e scaleless sarà possibile affrontare la tematica generale su più fronti e in una molteplicità di declinazioni possibili. Il corso è rivolto a chi,indipendentemente dal proprio background (urbanistica, architettura, ingegneria, design, arte o altro) già possiede una esperienza di base con Rhinoceros e Grasshopper, e desidera sviluppare aspetti di gestione avanzata del flusso di articolato di informazioni attraverso una strategia guidata basata su esempi pratici e sull’implementazione di un progetto personale sul tema generale del “field behaviour”. Sarà trattato anche l’utilizzo di alcuni plug-ins quali gHowl e WeaverBird. Il numero dei partecipanti è fissato a un massimo di 20 per offrire un tutoraggio proficuo ed una effettiva esperienza di learning ad ogni iscritto.
[.] Temi:
teoria
. complessità, emergence, effetti di campo (field behaviour), sensibilità, efficienza multiperformance

re not clearing at each rebuild.
I was finding that if I send in 10 lines to "Riblist", on the first instance it reports holding 10 items. Upon the rebuild, without the explicit Riblist.Clear(), it reported holding 20 items.
I included an explicit xxx.clear() before I call DA.GetDataList and that fixed it (for now at least). For example:
RibList.Clear()
SubDivision = 1If Not (DA.GetDataList(0, RibList)) Then Return
If Not (DA.GetData(1, SubDivision)) Then Return
DA.GetData(2, ClosedDiagrid_bool)
In this component, I had declared the variables after the "Inherits GH_Component" as private. Example:
Inherits GH_ComponentPrivate RibList As New List(Of Curve)
Private SubDivision As Integer = 1
Private ClosedDiagrid_bool As Boolean = False
Might this be messing things up since upon a rebuild of the solution, the class is not getting reinstantiated but just the "solve instance" sub routine is run?
Oddly, this was messing up any other custom component without the grasshopper file.
Hope this make some sort of sense.
Thanks.

ed. This image shows the problem:
If this is not what you are seeing on your own machine when you hook up your HBZones to a panel, then you have not uploaded the right Rhino and Grasshopper file.
2) You have not run your HBZones through an EnergyPlus simulation. You need to do this in order to get data with which to construct the indoor temperature map. I would strongly recommend following along through the first 8 videos of this tutorial series before trying to construct an indoor radiant temperature map of your own project (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLruLh1AdY-SgW4uDtNSMLeiUmA8YXEHT_)
3) You are using components from the last stable release, which is fine but you should know that there has been a lot of development on the indoor temperature map workflow in the last 20 days (there is now a much cleaner workflow that integrates the air and radiant temperature with comfort alanyses now on the github). If you imagine using this workflow frequently, I would recommend updating with the Ladybug_Update Ladybug and Hopneybee_Update Honeybee components. See the attached recent file for how the workflow is currently structured.

need to be able to select the outer grid too. So I tried a different approach.
The first picture shows how the inner grid in the breps should look like(up in the air).
The intersecting points as shown in picture 2 are also right picked as you can see through the curve/curve panel.
I got it done with dispatch for just one brep, but the seperation of the inner and outer grid doesn't work with multiple breps. I'm pretty sure it is a small data tree problem, but I can't find the problem.
Could you please help me another time?

s on a building. It's been since then reviewed and improved by someone who knows what she's doing.
BUT I still have 2 problems that I want to solve because I don't understand why.
- why after a flip the offset side of the surface doesn't change ?
Generally how to ensure that all my breps will offset outwards the building....?
(I have around 20 of them for the whole building as I have various densities, one brep=one density)
- why some of the louvers always go the wrong way ? It's very time consuming because my boss makes me change them every week and and I have to remove/redraw these one by one...
And for every brep, I have to re-check and re-enter all the louvers dimensions, invert them or put them to negative values, untill most of them are ok on a given brep...
Generally speaking, how to force a sweep to be rotated always in the way we want, without having to change the values to negative...?
Hope someone can give me a direction ! See files attached. Thanks

ied images (in the form of a time series). At first, the idea was to take time series of satellite imagery and label them accordingly into urban and non-urban. Since this step alone seemed too time consuming for now, we took a different approach. We photographically documented the growth of the slime mold Physarum Polycephalum in a Petri dish (about 2000 images in 2-min increments) and then labeled them into fungal and non-fungal.
We would now like to use this labeled data (in the form of a list of black levels for each pixel) to make a prediction using Crow. Our first consideration is to use as input the pixel values of time step n and as output those of time step n+X and to train the network in this way (X could be 1, i.e. 2 min in the future, or 10, i.e. 20 min in the future). We would then use a later time step as a test, which is not included in the training set. So we could then compare the real output with the generated one.
Now the questions:
How realistic is it to perform such a prediction using the backpropagation approach in Crow? Especially also with regard to the structure of input and output (both times long lists of pixel values)? Will this detect the patterns of the temporal component, even if they are not explicitly stored in the inputs and outputs?
Or in general, is it realistic to do this kind of time prediction with Crow?Thank you to anyone in advance who might be able to help!…
