2015. You will have the opportunity to play with an experimental large scale distributed framework we have been busy with over the last few months called 'Stampede'. You will get knowledge on MDO and parametric design, meet some of the developers of the framework, hands-on experience and investigate the gained results in an experimental atmosphere. You will be working with Rhino and Grasshopper during the workshop.
PROGRAMME
The workshop will start with an introduction on Stampede and the different technologies involved, such as cloud computing, parametric modelling and multi-disciplinary design optimisation. After the presentations, we will discuss an example use case, get to work with and gain some hands-on experience by applying your newly gained knowledge to design your own multi-disciplinary design optimisation model and investigate its behaviour.
REGISTRATION
Excited? The IASS conference organisation lowered the price of the two-day workshop from € 250,- to € 150,-. You can register here via the IASS2015 website. The workshop is also available for people who did not register for the IASS2015 Symposium. There is also a rumour around that if you e-mail White Lioness that you can get a code for a even bigger discount.
MORE INFORMATION
Keep an eye on the Stampede website if you want to keep up to date with the latest developments about the workshop. Updated information about Stampede and the workshop will be regularly posted.

teraction for its Correlations cycle, AA Athens Visiting School scales up its design intentions in order to investigate links among discrete individual architectural systems in its 2013 version, Recharged.
Recharged with interconnectivity on different levels, the theme of investigation will revolve around the design of semi-independent design prototypes acting together to form elaborate unified results. The driving force in Cipher City: Recharged is the synergistic effect behind complex form-making systems where interactive design patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple rules.
In collaboration with the National Technical University of Athens, Cipher City: Recharged will explore participatory design and active engagement modeling and will continue building novel prototypes upon horizontal planes.
As in 2012, the design agendas of AA Athens and AA Istanbul Visiting Schools will directly create feedback on one another, allowing participation in either one or both Programmes.

hat differ in shapes, sizes and height the facade would be a mess. Some spaces need some light while other can't have any. I would like to have full freedom of creation inside the building, to make it as functional as possible. Thats why i decided the parametric "skin" solution would be best. Since the location has industrial past (factories made of brick) i decided that brick would give interesting result.
I tried creating the definition on my own but since i lack skill in GH i got some problems (especially multiplication of bricks and the diffrence between each "level" (half a brick on y axis) caused problems for me.
I post my simple sketch explaining the idea of definition i would like to create (sorry about quality):
1 - Brep - I would like to use 25x12x6cm (classic brick) but as well experiment with diffrent shapes - like the one on the right with hole inside - that would give more light. Thats why i think the best solution would be using brep for this definition.
2- Multiplication - biggest problem for me - I don't know how tall the wall would be, what will be the final shape of Brep (brick) and that's why i would like to manipulate this with sliders as well. All the walls are flat (maybe it would be easier to use surface?). As i managed to multiply the bricks easy way i don't know how to gain control over height of the wall - for example that it is 30 bricks high, but has each second row moved on x axis by the distance of 1/2 brick. I tried using Series but with no success. Could you help me with that please?
3 - Rotation - i would like to use image sampler for that so i can "paint" where i want more sun and where i dont need it at all (black and white). The rotation has to be limited to 180 degrees as well. Obviously i didn't get here yet, but i never used image sampler so if you could give me some advice how to use component and how to create such images i would be really grateful.
4 - More of a concept thing - since the connection angles differ from 90 degrees i will have to figure out how to connect the parts of the wall at sides ;).
I would like to ask you for help with the defintion, since i am totally stuck at step 2. I post what i came up with so far. Thank you for your time and help!
PS. I post an image that is pretty similar to one of options i would like to check for my building.

Do you know of a generic container in Rhincommon I can store geometry form meshes, breps and curves to points? That's what I seem to need to get around the IEnumerable error.
I have to figure out how to format the Boolean array in Python. Ah, parenthesis worked!
P = Rhino.Geometry.Brep.CreatePatch(CURVES_CONTAINER, Starting_Surface[0], 10, 10, True, False, 10, 30, 0, (False, False, False, False), 1)
At long last, only to find out it won't work right, as in no setting of flexibility will affect it at all?!
Tolerance has a sudden crazy effect if I turn it way up, like a piece of paper bending up opposite corners and it no long is trimmed, but flexibility is dead. I used your same values and same curves for everything. Yes, all the curves are participating, if I bake them and move them around.
My Patch is broken. Weird. Is there magic with the starting surface? I made a naive assumption just a plane would do. Yet you seem to be using your simple CreatePatch results for this?
Ah, the second CreatePatch command type that takes only a surface gives the same thing, nearly. You need a starting surface at all?! They said you could now leave that out as of Rhino SR10 by using Null, but Null or Nothing gives an error. How do I make a null? In Python it's None, as in just entering None into the Rhinocommon command or assigning a variable to None.
Now I have a patch!
But your's is more expressive, more crazy, like your starting surface is greatly influencing it to have extremely extended feet, whereas mine works like a normal patch, as if you were trying to smooth over things. And indeed your surface pull slider makes it more obvious you chose a specific starting surface attached to one of the curves. My starting planes had no such effect, earlier.
With such a starting surface to bias the results I get the same thing finally, indeed, good to know what that does, I never knew from using the command in Rhino.
Why did my use of a plane shut this down so badly though?! Crazy command.
I've enclose a working script for the record.…

Objetivos:
El curso está dirigido a cada diseñador, ingeniero o arquitecto que quiere obtener una sólida base en modelado generativo y paramétrico dentro del flujo de trabajo en Rhinoceros.
En el curso se explorarán y construirán estructuras en el espacio paramétrico, incorporando entidades geométricas (Curvas, Superficies, Puntos, etc…) y usando patrones algorítmicos.
Cada paso será soportado con ejercicios que gradualmente incrementarán su complejidad.
El alumno aprenderá cómo trabajar con asociación geométrica y parámetros. Para perfeccionar asociación geométrica – asociación entre partes, asociación dinámica – las formas geométricas son generadas al seguir la conexión lógica entre la parte geométrica y su restricción, dimensión paramétrica y él proceso dinámico del diseño: en pocas palabras estimulamos el pensamiento relacional.
Resultados:
Los participantes con éste entrenamiento obtendrán las siguientes fundamentos.
· Construir, modificar, depurar y correr aplicaciones de Grasshopper.
· Comprender el editor gráfico algorítmico y sus patrones usando grupos y cables conectores.
· Trabajar con dimensiones dinámicas, parámetros y listas.
· Generar aplicaciones orientadas a la documentación del diseño y la fabricación.
Palabras clave:
Diseño Computacional, Scripting, Rhinoceros 5.0 + Grasshopper, Parametrización, Análisis, Fabricación Digital.
