tal fabrication tools. DLAB will investigate natural growth processes in relation to innovative concepts of architectural tectonics and fabrication. We will carefully interweave these concepts with interaction and participatory design to create full-scale working prototypes. The programme will be formulated as a two-phase process. During the initial phase participants will benefit from the unique atmosphere and facilities of AA’s London home. The second phase will shift to AA Hooke Park campus and revolve around the fabrication and assembly of a full-scale architectural intervention.
Some of the most prominent features which the participants will be exposed to during DLAB include:
Teaching team: Participants engage in an active learning environment where the large tutor to student ratio (5:1) allows for personalized tutorials and debates.
Facilities: The Digital Prototyping Lab (DPL) in AA London houses cutting-edge facilities for the fabrication of physical outputs through digital fabrication techniques. The facilities at AA Hooke Park allow for the fabrication of one-to-one scale prototypes with a 3-axis CNC router.
Computational skills: The toolset of DLAB includes but is not limited to Rhinoceros, Processing, Arduino, and Grasshopper.
Theoretical understanding: The dissemination of fundamental design techniques and relevant critical thinking methodologies to the participants through theoretical sessions and seminars forms one of the major goals of DLAB.
Professional awareness: Participants ranging from 2nd year students to PhD candidates and full-time professionals experience a highly-focused collaborative educational model which promotes research-based design and making.
Fabrication: According to the specific agenda of each year, a one-to-one scale prototype is fabricated and assembled by design teams.
Lecture series: Taking advantage of its unique location, London, DLAB creates a vibrant atmosphere with its intense lecture programme conveying the diverse expertise of professionals in the areas of digital design and fabrication techniques.

a conceptualización de un proceso paramétrico, el uso de algoritmos como herramienta creativa, técnicas de generación formal avanzada, y métodos para la optimización y mejora de nuestros diseños.
El énfasis se hará sobre estos conceptos, a la vez que haremos un uso exhaustivo de herramientas específicas de modelado generativo para materializar estas ideas, en nuestro caso, Rhinoceros y Grasshopper.
En ParametricCamp nos gusta ponernos manos a la obra. Habrá teoría, estudios, debate y puestas en común, pero principalmente trabajaremos, programaremos y produciremos sobre ejemplos prácticos y modelos concretos, estructurados con una complejidad creciente y desarrollados con fines docentes. Así mismo, el evento finalizará con un proyecto personal, de programa flexible adaptado a tus intereses particulares, y desarrollado a lo largo del taller.
ParametricCamp es abierto y multidisciplinar, y está orientado a estudiantes y profesionales del campo del diseño, y en especial de la arquitectura y el diseño industrial.

Here I use one which has been refined with a 5 level subdivision...does it appear ok to you or would you recommend going even smaller? Green nodes are the ones loads act upon.
2) 'Local To Mesh' vs 'Global' vs 'Projected Global'
I am applying a positive wind pressure (0,729 kN/m2) in the direction of global positive y axis.
The façade mesh is 1505 m2, of which 1056 m2 runs parallel to the XZ plane.The wind pressure is 0,729 kN/m2 acting in the positive y direction ---> expected resultant of +/- 1056 x 0,729 = 770 kN.
'Global' gives +1098 kN in positive y direction.
'Global Projected' gives a +770 kN resultant in the positive y direction.
'Local to mesh'...gives -770kN along x axis (parallel to the façade according to ModelView) & -215kN along y axis. This surprised me since 'Local to mesh' is indeed the option to chose according to the manual yet I can't see how a wind load perpendicular to the facade would result in the tower moving in a cross-wind direction. 'Global projected' appears to provide the most logical result.
In view of these results, do you think the mesh remains ill-defined, the tower's shape is the culprit...or my choice of coordinate system for the load? What would you recommend?
Thanks again for your feedback, which is greatly appreciated.

cript that and I attempted tweaking it for several days but I'm having problems achieving the full idea i had.
Problem 1:
Once I Brep a frame of the original cube, and the hoopsnake starts, it does not always select the right face of the frame, sometimes chooses a face inside rather than the exterior one, therefore not always fitting pieces together nicely. I tried applying a bounding box to each frame and use the face of the bounding box as reference for the hoopsnake mirroring but I couldn't figure it out so i got rid of it. So I'm stuck...
Problem 2:
The other thing, is I'm wondering whether its possible to parametrize some sort of structural principle into the linear growth sequence in order for structure to retain realistic structural integrity. For example, when you start hoopsnake, the cube linearly grows (mirrors itself) towards the selected point(s); if the growth goes up and across, how would I make it reach a structural limit to make it go back down to the floor and back up again and continue? Could even be as simple as "after 5 frames/cubes vertically and across it goes back down and then up again towards the referenced point(s)" or something.
PS. "Reset All" in Hoopsnake before doing anything.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks in advance,
Cesco…
2012 Ultimate. I can open my component in Grasshopper, which has the null reference error 1. Solution exception:Object reference not set to an instance of an object,fine. Now I want to debug in Visual Studio, but my modules say no .pdb file only for any .gha,.dll's, and .rhp's found in C:\Users\Nathaniel\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\Grasshopper (b45a29b1-4343-4035-989e-044e8580d9cf)\0.9.76.0\. The Debug only loads pdb. for symbols in servers and Grasshopper\Libraries, with one exception for Grasshopper.dll which is the only grasshopper component with a .pdb file in the \Mcneel\Rhinoceros...
Where are the .pdb files for all the other components Starling_0.2.gha, C_sawapan_media_x64.dll, Vector.gha, GH_IO.dll...? I'll run off the checklist of what I've tried:
GrasshopperDeveloperSettings turn off COF
made sure Debug Platform Target is 64, as well as Configuration Manager
add reference in Tools>Options>Symbols add reference (pdb.) to file for where the component files are found.
clicked on load symbols, but that doesn't help or save any .pdb's in my symbolcache.
added same location in ProjectProperies>ReferencePath
added same location in RhinoDeveloperSettings Add Folder
Do I not even need these symbols to debug? Is there a way to add .pdb's manually to my symbolcache? Why does my breakpoint say The debugger could not locate the source file 'C:\dev\grasshopper\1.0\root\src\GH_Component.vb'? I think I read that Grasshopper was written in .vb..Why does my callstack say Grasshopper.dll!Grasshopper.Kernel.GH_Component.New(String name, String nickname, String description, String category, String subCategory)? Why the ! after the .dll?
I am thankful for any input

mages, output from Radiance (or not necessarily in my case, but processed using Radiance/pcomb).
Has anyone tried to apply bespoke or unusual gradient palettes to their false-colour images ?
It would be so great to be able to process images like grids, using a preset library much like this:
https://github.com/mostaphaRoudsari/ladybug/blob/master/resources/gradients.jpg
I used to use the 5 available palettes described in A. Jacob's Radiance Cookbook (+ bespoke ones) on the command line with the old falsecolor.pl , but I don't think these are available now with falsecolor2.exe... am I right?
I am aware of the alternative old palette -spec but in the current HB false-colour component, but is that it ?
Another question for Mingbo - I get the following error message when trying to open the attached HDR file with your amazing new viewer: 1. Solution exception:Parameter is not valid.
Am I doing anything wrong ? I can see many useful applications to your pixel-value reader, especially if externally rendered HDR images can be loaded (which is the case here). Do they need a specific header to be "valid" ?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Best,
Jocelyn

I am starting to wonder if I have some sort of mismatch between my GHA file and my Diva version, though I'm not sure that would cause these kinds of problems.
Incidentally, I tried creating a brand new file and I get the same results. I cannot save anything with DIVA components in them, they disappear every time. :(
Speaking of 2.0, do you happen to know when that will be released?
Thanks,
Marc
