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.

y (movement, protection, temperature regulation) but also the evolution of cultural expression precisely by exceeding the purely indexical performative relations. Designing not only for the needs but for the desires.
Computational couture looks at the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing (typical of haute couture) through the lens of a systemic approach, extending the sartorial techniques with 3D modeling and computation-based approaches developed in Rhinoceros and the visual programming environment Grasshopper.
Aim of the workshop is to exert, infuse and expand the sartorial sensibilities to body proportions and dress making into an algorithmic approach that loops through design and fabrication by means of laser cutting and 3d printing for the design and production of a garment. Participants will be divided in teams focusing on specific aspects of the garment related to the production technique (laser cutting or 3D printing).

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.

pproach that will hopefully work. There's still the last part of putting it all together, but I figured I'd post my progress so you could play around with it if you wanted. This is kind of a lucky situation since its only single face breps and simple trims that are being worked with.
I've attached 3 definitions to this post. The first is my reorganization of your original definition, which creates the surfaces from the point grid and culls out any surfaces that are not "on" the surface so that we don't have to deal with them later down the line. This is done through a small VB component which determines whether any of the corner points lie on the surface. If it does it keeps the surface, if not, then it doesn't. The only issue with this is that in your example file, there are some surfaces which the corner points do not lie on the surface, yet the surface that they create spans the underlying surface. At this point I'm not worrying about those. You mentioned that you only want the surfaces that lie at the edge...this can be done by testing whether all 4 corner points lie on the trimmed surface or not.
The second definition is a coded version of the project function. In the example it will project to all the breps supplied, yet in the final version this probably won't be desired. Also, the direction (z axis) is hard code...this could be swapped out if desired.
The third definition is an shot at trimming a surface with an input curve (that curve happens to be projected). I tried this many ways, but found that the function RhinoCutUpSurface seamed to work alright. The other attempts at doing this directly with through functions available for OnBrep were unsuccessful and very complex. Luckily because the underlying brep is an single, untrimmed surface this function works well for us, but in situations where we have a trimmed or multiface brep we'd be up a creek with out a paddle. The function creates an array of breps, but in our case it will create essentially the same surface split by our curve and joined together as a single brep with two (possibly more) faces. All we have to do is find out which face we want to keep and duplicate that into a separate brep and pass it out of the component. In the example file I'm determining which on to keep based off of the distance from a test point to the centroid of each face.
The other option here, which would trump the need for projection or trimming, would be to extrude the edge curves through the surface in question, and use the BrepSplit function which requires two breps. There would still be the need to sort out what to keep, but if this approach were used, all the split pieces would be separate breps.
So, all the pieces are pretty much working separately, all that I have left to do is put them all together in the base definition. The only thing that is really the hump with that is determining exactly which face to keep. My idea at the moment is to find out which corner of the surface does not like on the base surface and use that to determine which face will be thrown out. This might be one of the easier ways, but will not be rock solid. The other option is to pull a test point that's on one of the faces to the base surface and the other face, then use the distance from test point to the point on the base surface and the distance to the pulled point on the other face to the base surface to figure out which one to keep.
As to sectioning off parts of the solution, you could do this in a number of ways, but here's two simple ones. In a scripting component just add a boolean value to the inputs and put the whole script inside of an if statement that looks at that boolean value. With components just add a boolean gate or a null pattern componet anywhere you want in the stream. Again, hook in a boolean toggle value, and that will stop the info from going to components that are downstream.…
rectly except for the first material in a series. See attached image... Here is my code:
Private Sub RunScript(ByVal M As Object, ByVal C As Color, ByRef AddName As Object, ByRef AddMat As Object, ByRef AddBool As Object, ByRef baseName As Object, ByRef newMatName As Object)
Dim z As String = "newMatName" Dim y As String = "BaseName" Dim x As Integer = 0 Dim nRestore As String Dim mTemp As Rhino.DocObjects.Material
mTemp = CType(M, Rhino.DocObjects.Material) y = mTemp.Name Dim nTemp As String
If mTemp.Name.Contains("_MOD_R") = False Then
nRestore = mTemp.Name nTemp = mTemp.Name & "_MOD_R" & C.R & "_G" & C.G & "_B" & C.B mTemp.Name = nTemp z = nTemp mTemp.DiffuseColor = C
If Doc.Materials.Find(nTemp, True) < 0 Then
Doc.Materials.Add(mTemp) x = x + 1 AddName = nTemp AddMat = mTemp
End If
mTemp.Name = nRestore
End If
newMatName = z
AddBool = x BaseName = y
End Sub
1) I have checked that all of the materials I am calling by name exist in the document and that data matching is correct. There doesn't seem to be anything special about the offending material except that it is always the first material that was added to the document by my script.
2) The main thing I was missing in the previous script was the "doc.Materials.Add()" -- how on earth should I have known that existed? Even a search for "doc.Materials" in the Rhinocommon SDK doesn't turn that up. I'm having a very hard time using the SDK to my advantage, it seems not to correlate to the actual code I need to write.
2b) Perfect example... now I am trying to rewrite my other component (which exposes all of the document materials) to set a few objects manually in Rhino with the Materials I want to use as templates. Now I am trying to find out how to access the material assigned to an object. Seems easy, but it's clearly not a Property, and I can't find an appropriate Method in either the Objects or Materials classes.
3) One of my problems originally, when feeding the component one material and multiple colors, was that the nTemp variable was not resetting properly for the second color. Same thing if I duplicated the material to match the list of colors. It would create a material on the first pass but concatenate "_MOD_R_G_B" in each subsequent pass and be caught by my String checker. Why is that? I thought that the nTemp Name variable would be reset in each pass by the line "mTemp = CType(M, Rhino.DocObjects.Material)" and "nTemp = mTemp.Name" combination.
Does the mTemp material somehow carry over its properties in each successive pass? That's why I added the nRestore to be sure each pass reset the name back to the original.
Still, I wonder if there is some problem with the way I am conceptualizing this that is causing the first material to be the same as the input material.
Thanks for your help on this...
Cheers,

s: [Mesh Brep] which used the Rhino mesher, [Mesh Surface] which create a rectangular grid of mesh faces on a single surface and [Simple Mesh] which attempts to represent each face in a Brep using a single Tri or Quad and accuracy be damned. Let's focus on the easy ones first...
[Simple Mesh] is a first attempt at providing a completely reductionist meshing engine. It was born out of a skype discussion I had with Brian James one night during the weekly Seattle RMA developer meeting. It only handles very simple cases at the moment so it's probably not all that useful, but it's there anyway just in case. If this mesher cannot handle a certain Brep face because it's too complicated it will use the native Rhino mesher for that face.
The purpose of [Mesh Surface] is to provide a single surface mesh that isn't distorted by the underlying parameterization of a surface. My approach for this actually turned out to be really slow, which is why the [Q] input is set to false by default. This mesher was never designed to take trims into account, however you get a single option [H] to control how trims interact with the mesh.
[Mesh Brep] merely channels the native Rhino mesher. You can supply meshing settings that look a little bit like the meshing settings that Rhino itself exposes. With these settings you can control how seams in breps are handled, how much the mesh is allowed to deviate from the underlying geometry, how many quads you want etc. This is the most customizable option, but even here it's totally possible you can't get what you want. For example, there is no way to enforce a mesh that contains only quads. As soon as seams are stitched or whenever trims are present, you're going to get triangles along the edges of meshes.

a given with the third set of information (at the 6th minute). From that, it will then match - for the same exact boats - the speed data given at the 4th minute. Finally it will do a matched subtraction of V(4th) from V(6th) for each boat. Those numbers - whether then scaled up / down or somehow manipulated - will act as the Z dimension which will create the topology. Since V2 - V1 can have a minus value, the overall topology will be a mix of mountains and icebergs this time.
Perhaps to be more accurate, we could divide V2-V1 by 120 and let the topology show the change in speed in a second within that two minutes; the XY coordinates belonging to the latter position of the ships, not the first.
Your definition as you say helps for the linear drawing as it continues from it's stopped. I used that in the current sketch as well for again doing the same thing.However when, I tried to use it for what I am trying to do with the acceleration thing, the result was different. I will try to explain this again;
Let's say that until this point 6 sets of data has arrived - so 12 minutes has passed -. Within that 6 sets, the number of of boats for each one differ as not all of them are able to send data every time. Let's assume in total there are 25 boats and 18 of them have always managed to send data in those 12 minutes. So 18 from the beginning until the end, and finally let's say the remaining 7 of them only could manage to come into the picture at the 4th set of data (so 4,5 and 6).
Now, if I were to build a topology of acceleration for the 6th minute which would mean that I would have to subtract V(4th minute) from V(6th minute) of all 18 vessels, I would need index 2 and 1 from all the branches. If I do this only after 6 minutes has passed from the beginning it would probably work, however if I do it later like at the 12th minute, it does not.
And the very reason for that is when the remaining 7 join the crowd at the 8th minute they obtain an index number of 0, and then 1, and then 2 - at the 12th minute. Because of that when I try to match the V2-V1s with Coordinates on the Unary Force component, while there are 18 sets of coordinates, there are 25 different speed values.
Of course this is quite a simplified scenario and perhaps your vessel matching could solve this specific one but there are cases where its more complicated and random.
I do still want to show vessels' position in a specific time with such pipes you have suggested, but I am trying to construct a collective model, in its simplest form being equal to pipes + topology
For the time thing, what I meant was in this version when you click play the mountains just keep on rising and the topology is constantly deformed. I was wondering if we can set up a timer so that it runs the physics engine for couple of seconds and then freezes the topology as it is. Otherwise I would have to press pause manually everytime, which is not that big of a deal tbh, just for the accuracy sake it would be good to run the engine for the same interval for each model.
All the best,
Levent…

as you can see I devided it into 3 parts.
part1: when I try to connect the new shape to the rest of your definition,the plan z,which gives the panels individually when baked(so I can work them individually)doesn't work,apparently there is something missing when I want to explode it.
that is why I connected it to the definition that I already had(part2)( the only cool part about that one is the attractor point)well it kind works,but not really(if you zoom in you can see that there are some parts overlapped and really not looking good).however I much rather your definition because of the option it gives me to work with individual panels when baked(planz).
however it's around 4 am. and I have decided to make some major changes in design (to prepare some closed and open space,I'm talking about part3 that works with the fibonacci like shape,I know it doesnt look really good,but seriously 4am.!).the major problem is that I tried to make a form like that with kangaroo so the shape would be smoother but I wasnt really able to make it with kangaroo,that's why I made it manually in rhino.I was wondering if you can help me make something like this ( not exacly like this) with kangaroo or (if impossible to be made with kangaroo)even helping me optimizing it so it doesnt look as bad,as you can see when I try to work the grasshopper definition on this shape,it gives me different panel sizes for each surface and all of them are to small compared with the overall size of the so-called pavillion(give it 200-500 sq feet (20-50 sq.m).and any suggestions about the shape would be appreciated,please forgive my basic knowledge of rhino and grasshopper,and let's say I wanted to make a shape like these(don't laugh please!)
u promised not to laugh!!!
please help me find the right way!
