rametriche all’interno del processo progettuale, approfondendo l’utilizzo di Grasshopper in sinergia con plug-in, software di analisi ambientale e simulazione fisica. Obiettivo fondamentale è la generazione della forma come risultato di tecniche di form-finding e di input ambientali (solari, termici e acustici). Verranno acquisiti nuovi strumenti operativi e di simulazione al fine di costruire modelli parametrici ottimizzati in grado di adattarsi a diverse condizioni di contesto.

ape of the Gatorade Run – Fun Race Machine(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8RIMVhdgIk), and the interactive digitally informed Nike + Fuelband-Wristband Interactive Video-Mapping Projection Concert at at Battersea Power Station(https://vimeo.com/70791746), the AA Visiting School Rio de Janeiro 10-day intensive workshop will focus on how sports infrastructure can be informed and transformed by scanned body data so to both illustrate and improve human athletic capacity and interactively engage the spectator. Students will use theTokyo 2020 Olympic stadium as a testing ground for the creation of a new type of intelligent and interactive sports architecture. The workshop will teach eyeball and brain scanning, interactive coding, and parametric digital design and fabrication using Rhino and Grasshopper, to create a post-robotic morphing between the sensibility of the body and novel computational innovation, between Rio de Janeiro 2016 and Tokyo 2020. All software will be taught from beginning level, no previous experience needed.

Especially when there are multiple rules acting at the same time it gets really confusing.
For example:
Rule 1 = 2FF[+1]
Rule 2 = F[1]-2
From what (i think) i understand in general,
Step 1 reads rule 1.
Step 2 reads rule 1 then rule 2.
Step 3 reads rule 1 then rule 2 then rule 1
Step 4 reads rule 1 then rule 2 then rule 1 then rule 2...
But in this case rule 2 involves rule 1. How do i read it?
Another thing is when there are multiple seeds, how does it affect the rules?
For example:
A = 1
1 = F+F
AA = ?
A-A = ?
Hopefully i explained my question clearly.
Help is very much appreciated!…
nd the power of the combination with Galapagos. Since everyone here is a user, you are all well aware of how powerful the tool is.
What I was wondering was if anyone has published or is aware of any papers relevant to my field of study. I have watched a few presentations by various (David, Jon and Daniel at AA for example) but was wondering if any further work has been done that I have not encountered.
Unfortunately I am not a member of many of the organisations some of you would have presented for (i.e. IASS). However if you have published a paper with any institute I am sure I can track it down.
Thanks for any light you can shine in advance, and I hope to be publishing my modules soon as a tool for other to learn from. Hopefully in the form of a blog (should life not intervene first.)
Thanks in advance,

50 and reduced the 'cell size' slider to 0.5. When the 'Azimuth' angle is changed to 180 +- 90 (dawn or dusk), the points are widely dispersed, reducing the density and increasing the number of cells in the "sparse grid". Under these conditions, the number of cells was ~2000 and the Profiler time for 'Boundary' went up to a full minute or more each time 'Altitude' or 'Azimuth' was changed.
So I created this code to benchmark some alternatives and found two interesting things:
'Boundary' surface performance (v.1) is not linear. As the number of surfaces goes from 1000 to 2000, the time per surface goes up dramatically.
I tried three alternatives for creating a rectangular surface at a given point that are all substantially faster: v.2, v.3 and v.4. For 2000 points, v.4 is 150 times faster than v.1 !!!
Performance of v.2, v.3 and v.4 are similar and all scale up very well. To benchmark beyond 2000 points, I recommend disabling the VERY SLOW v.1. At 5000 points the 'Pop2D' component takes ~11.3 seconds but v.3 and v.4 take less than one second to generate 5000 surfaces!
See boundary_2015Nov19a.gh attached.
So I replaced the 'Rectangle' and 'Boundary' components in my sun reflection model with v.4 in focus_2015Nov19b.gh (also attached) and the performance is amazing.
I'm sure someone has mentioned this performance issue with 'Boundary' on the forum before but as with many things, I didn't realize what a major obstacle it can be until I discovered this for myself.…

grout lines, a tile surface and tile perimeter poly line). I then use that as a Mesh (from Rhino) in the second definition.
2. I can tile out the mesh surface and rotate all the tiles in 90 deg. increments.
To get what I wanted. I took the Mesh and have copied it in series to make a grid. I can then control the dimensions of the grid. X and Y extents. I can also rotate the tiles around their centers.
The spacing of the grid is set from an edge curve of the tile (or mesh). This sets the size of the squares in the grid themselves.
See definition, images and Rhino 4 File, to give the definitions a shot. I have labeled how to use them.
My question -- how can I randomly rotate squares in my grid? I would like the deg of rotation to be random and also which tiles they are.
Also how might I rotate (every other tile) for example? So that I can control the pattern more?
Thoughts?
Thanks!

ror when it comes to points on edges of the surface.I guess it is because normal vectors at a few of points are invalid. After all, because of these invalid points, an error message comes out which is saying " Runtime error (PythonException) : Unable to add polyline to document " and it results in no output. Please give me some help if you know how to handle this problem. I post a code below.Thanks in advance.

g from a list of 12 items I would find all the combinations taking just 4 at time.
I'd use a Stream gate that takes the indexes of the items and pass them to a list item in order to select just the items of the combination. Doing so I can choose a single combination of index at time to pass to the list item.
In this moment all the data come out from the first gate, all the others are empty.
If I pass these index to the list item it gives me an error (probably because of the data structure).
*long version*
I start from a list of 12 segments, all of them with the starting point in common and the ending point distributed regularly in the space. It's a quite simple starting point.
What I'm trying to achieve is to find all the possible spatial configurations made of 2, 3, 4 segments. I started with 2 segments so I've 12^2=144 possible configurations but just 4 different configurations that can intuitivelly be recognized (60°, 90°, 120°, 180°).
Doing the same with 3 segments generates 12^3=1728 configurations and I don't know how many different ones. With 4 segments I've got 12^4=20736 possible configurations.
As you can imagine many configurations are identical but just with a different orientation so at the end I'll have to parse geometrically the output to delete duplicates (I'll address this later on).
Please could you help me to figure out how to mix these segments in different configurations?
Thank you in advance.…
per bake commands to bake the connected geometry with the corresponding materials.
mxDiff is a simple diffuse material. Only reflectance color for 0° and 90° are exposed.
mxEmit is a basic emitter material. You can set light color, power and efficiacy of the emitter.
mxBasic is the most complex material for now. You can set all the properties of a single layer material including. Use this for transparent materials.
mList is your way if you don't want to create your own materials. This component returns a list of all the materials on the Maxwell scene manager. Make sure this is evaluated after you add your own materials if you want to see them in the list.…
y case. Here's the thing. There is this subject at my university where we are assigned a famous building and we need to recreate it in Rhino. We're given bonus points if we manage to code some interesting part of it in Grasshopper. So far so good, I'm doing pretty well with Rhino and by far I am happy with the results I've achieved with modelling the given building. Harbin Opera House by MAD is the building I'm trying to model. There is one particular surface:I've built this surface in Rhino and now I'm trying to map pyramids on it. Not only have the pyramids to be different in height, but their height has to be dependent on the curvature of the surface. I'm getting some results but it seems to be exactly the opposite of what I need. I want to have higher/spikier pyramids where my curvature analysis shows red/blue and lower/slopier pyramids where the analysis shows green colour.At the moment I'm not really sure how the code I have works, but it seems that the height of the pyramids is dependent on a distance from a point in space to the projection of the cap-point of a pyramid.Here're my Rhino and Grasshopper files:surface1.3dm
surface1.ghI'd be grateful if someone of you guys could handle my problem. I've got one more issue with this surface, but once I get a solution to the first 1 will let know what the second one is.Thanks in advance and keep well!…
