Architectural Animation_ Designing National Cyber Games Center in Tehran by Using Digital Architecture Findings
Game is one of the oldest human behaviors and it is specifically related to the culture and region in every society. Considering the change and growth in societies, they –the games- coordinate themselves with these changes. Inventing digital tools, games entered a new arena and quickly changed to a remarkable area in industry and economic market and they also attract more time and audience towards themselves, not requiring big and special spaces, being accessible to public. Regarding the extensive effects of computer games on economic, cultural, educational, physical and mental health arenas, every country has done a deal with content control, supporting producers, increasing public awareness and etc within its special background. Iran computer and video games foundation as a non-profit organization takes charge of different domain support and control in this effective industry under the supervision of Ministry of Guidance. Architecture and computer games in different domains have influenced each other and are interconnected. And since games are played in one space, they require game space designing together with type of the game. So game designers need knowledge and studies in architecture design. Architecture, inventing digital tool, used its features to advance its goals, as games did. Although at first it used them for drawings and visual expressions of ideas, extending these features, they were used in design process. Meanwhile, using digital technics produced specifically for animation making and computer games leaded to their more proximity. In the design of Iran computer and video games center, we tried to use digital features in all steps. Therefore extracting main parameters from the designing process steps and changing them to computer codes (using algorithm), we tried to make its various states producible and to provide the possibility of optimizing the required area, maximum vision to key spaces around the site and also the amount of received light. Also in designing the project facade, after research on various technics of exfoliation and façade design, Media façade was used for a better compatibility with video games. With an approach to creating mobility for the audience and the computer game producers in the greenbelt near the project, physical playgrounds were created for them.…
mers considering extreme sports reject mainstream retailers and like to check out small stores rather of at chains plus malls. Several smaller retailers discuss trends in sports shoe sales. http://skateszone.com/
Though athletic shoes and sports stores and from doorways retailers have reported somewhat uptick in footwear sales due to the increase in extreme sports, the particular beneficiaries inside the trend are independent surf and skate niche stores.
Some West Coast surf and skate shops stated teenagers and even more youthful Generation Xers are not only rejecting traditional sports, but they're also shunning mainstream retailers and malls meant for smaller niche shops transporting hard-to-come-by brands.
Eddie Miyoshi, district manager at Atomic Garage, a 3-store chain situated in Gardena, Calif., stated the soaring recognition of skateboard footwear has boosted the retailer's total footwear business 20-thirty percent this year, rather of '95.
Skate footwear presently represent 80-90 % of Atomic Garage's shoe sales, while couple of years back, Dr. Martens and Timberland drove the retailer's footwear business.
Like many retailers, Miyoshi pointed to Airwalk since the trend's catalyst.
However, if Airwalk broadened its distribution to larger chains, which are frequently located in malls, only a few skate shoe customers adopted. Rather, many youthful males have switched for your skate shops for additional elusive brands like Etnies, Duffs, and Electricity Footwear by Circus. By refusing to market bigger retailers or sports stores, these brands are increasing their cachet among youthful consumers.
"Kids don't want stuff which have been within the shops,In . Miyoshi added.
Searching ahead, Miyoshi forecasted skate shoe sales will remain strong through spring '97 provided "the [hot] vendors don't auction other [non-particularly shop] retailers."
"Skaters and non-skaters are rebelling against mainstream retailers so on to surf and skate shops for many looks," echoed Mark Richards, co-online sources Val Surf, a 3-store chain situated in North Hollywood, Calif. Soaring sales of skate footwear have driven total footwear receipts up 25 percent this year rather of '95.
"The quantity of that increase might be connected while using exposure of maximum games? I am unsure. [Skate footwear] may also be actually the think about the moment,In . Richards acknowledged. And in relation to getting this right look, youthful customers can be very picky.
"Skateboard footwear is a huge category for people, but we're not able to own the brands, Etnies, Duffs, Electricity and Nice, simply because they won't sell us," stated Mark Anderson, buyer at Chick's Sports, a six-store chain in Covina, Calif. "We have people coming every single day requesting them." Consequently, skate footwear have consistently ongoing to obtain about 5 % of Chick's overall footwear business. http://skateszone.com/the-top-8-best-skateboards-for-beginners-reviews-2017/
Nonetheless, some outdoors, niche sports and sports retailers are noting the growing recognition and coverage of maximum sports will receive a modest impact on footwear sales. Trailrunning footwear and approach/outdoors crosstrainers will be the two groups benefiting the very best inside the recognition. Like the skate shoe business, some retailers realize that styling instead of function frequently drives sales of individuals footwear.
"At this time the merchandise is a lot more visual than function," stated Chet James, gm of Super Jock 'N Jill, Dallas, speaking about trailrunning footwear. Still, James noted the current hype over adventure sports helps draw more customer traffic. "The marketing campaigns and media help bring growing figures of people in, nonetheless they frequently occasions day an issue that increases results on their own account,Inch he conceded.
John Wilkinson, executive vp inside the 85-store chain Track 'N Trail, Eldorado Hillsides, Calif., stated the shop has "seen some activity in approach footwear," but he requested the amount of consumers depend in it commercially sport. And, instead of accelerating total footwear business, Wilkinson speculated elevated sales of approach footwear and trailrunners are gnawing away at traditional hiking shoe and boot volume.
But Dan Bazinet, president of Overland Exchanging, a 34-store chain situated in Westford, Mass., believes the company-new looks have breathed existence for the wilting hiking boot category. "[Approach-type footwear] don't represent the lion's participate the hiking market, nonetheless they have elevated the hiking business and provided us extra sales," Bazinet stated.
He designated Timberland's Treeline Series and Rockport's Leadville line as strong performers. Unsurprisingly, he noted the company-new looks are attractive to youthful consumer base than traditional hikers.
For that month of June, sales of men's hikers were up 49 percent at Overland, rather of June '95, while sales of women's hikers were up 17 % for that month. Bazinet also attributed elevated sales that shops walked inside the hiking business, departing that business for that specialists.
Some retailers draw a good example concerning the hiking boom of two yrs ago combined with the current extreme sport phenomenon. "Plenty of bigger chains will get a specific percent in the industry while [extreme] sports remain a fad because they are selling cost-point type gear," described Steven Carre, assistant hard goods buyer at Adventure 16, a six-store chain situated in Hillcrest.
"However individuals [true enthusiasts] will say `we need real gear' and may shown up at us. That will help us after a while. What Size Skateboard good for an 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 year old

(4)Then I made the edges rigid (like in your model):
(5) The paper deals with this in two ways, one is crumpling:
(6) The other way is curved edges:
(7) The curved edges allow for a developable shape that consits of two cone sections (joined by the green line, which is also the location of your extra fold.) Centre points are A and C.
I guess crumpling is tricky to do in Grasshopper (perhaps something for Kangaroo?),
so I would use the two cone sections to create an accurate model in GH.
Or, actually, stick with the extra fold! (A folded surface is also developable, and you've already made lots of other folds).
Good luck!…

3. Delete the left C# that does the Ziggurat (and feeds the truss maker with the "skin").
4. Remove all the comments of type "don't touch ..." > be brave.
5. Create any spiral surface (like the ones shown as demos) in Rhino. Or Any List of surfaces (say: one spiral surface and some others - but better start with ONE test surface). DO NOT use trimmed surfaces (only my "pro" C# truss maker does this - but it's incredibly complex to handle it). In fact ... you can use them ... but forget it, for the moment.
6. Feed this green GH component shown (aka: the Red pill [Matrix], he he) with your surface(s) > surrender to the crazy world of trusses.
7. Listen to some appropriate stuff .

ick to the Bezier span option (because this "guarantees" the LESS visual gap when lofting - actually that's a lie but stick to the plan) .
1. If we had ONE pair "suitably" oriented then things could be a bit more easier. But ... there's a bunch of pairs around and IF your pairs are different (in the true sense of the liquid madness, he he) ... well we need a policy:
2. Find either (a) the centroids of (b) the min distance points and define an "axis".
3. Find the ccx pts (case a) or use points from (b) and change the curve seams to these. This yields curves that start/end at some controlled "neighbor" points (critical if your curves are different or "twist" - as pairs - etc etc). This is ALSO critical when you want peace of mind when lofting (or use sweep1) because don''t get for granted what the Loft options component claims by the "adjust seams" thingy.
4. Optionally change the 2nd curve orientation in order to get a clock wise + anti clock wise pair. More on that later (is related with other methods to "fuse" this with that).
5. Define points at each curve using a pair of double values (0-1 if the pair domains are 0-1).
6. Split the curves (get the segments that you want) and define pairs of vectors (at end/start segment pts) that could give us 2 bezier spans.Don't forget to control the vector "lengths".
7. Unite the spans with the segments.
If all the above fail ... well... there's always the Plan B: I could post the C# that does this and several other ways to "fuse" curves plus a curve maker that is rather suitable for your tower adventures.

to problems. If anyone wants to take a look at the attached file "605b-3" and try to help me, that would be awesome.
The way I'm thinking about creating the louvers:
1. Contour the shape (could be any shape, but I attached the one I'm trying to do it to)
2. Divide those contour curves
3. Find the 4 points on those curves that are furthest away from the center of each curve
4. Move those points slightly away from the center of each curve
5. Replace the unmoved points with the moved points
6. Interpolate/NURBS curve through the new list of points
7. Loft the new curves with the original contour curves
I think I'm close, but I'm getting stuck at the end- I thought shifting lists would be the best way to solve my problem, but I'm a little confused as to how grasshopper is organizing the list of new curves and how to match that organization to the original curves.
Attached is an image of where I am stuck. I can only create a surface in the gap that I'm trying to create by the louvers. Either that, or one or two of the curves tends to create a "tornado" looking thing and i can't figure out how to fix it without individually breaking up the list. Is there a way to set all the curve seams to be at the same location in a list?…
ation production and consumption that represent our physical world in numbers and complex networks. The advent of computational systems has not only helped in developing data production but also in transmitting data between different disciplines including architecture through fields of numbers/codes. Historically, numbers and proportions played a vital role in architectural production, now; the complex flow of data is opening unexpected territories for architects. Data Flow is an advanced computational design workshop that focuses on capturing, processing and utilizing real time data from the surrounding environment by means of physical computing and parametric design tools, enabling the participants to develop informed design solutions that adapt to the environment. The workshop knowledge objective is to reconsider abstract data as a design opportunity by developing the quantitative flow of data as a qualitative design approach. /// Application To apply, please follow this link to fill the application form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1xzKn-cZzfvu24ktTNP1ElGBAufdryfLNCXvpheucrS8/viewform /// Fees* 1700 EGP for students / 2000 EGP for graduates and young professionals * 20 % discount for early registration and payment before 22 nd of August 2014 more info on the workshop webpage: http://www.encodestudio.net/#!dataflow/cslb…
