The class is taught in English, fully online in 2 sessions of 3 hours each and an additional Q&A day via email. The course is scheduled between 8:00 and 11:00 UTC. This means that it is scheduled between 10:00 and 13:00 for Central European Summer Time (CEST) and between 16:00 and 19:00 for China Standard Time (CST – Beijing time).
Participants are expected to have a basic understanding of Grasshopper. Familiarity with Autodesk Ecotect is not required. You will be able to ask questions in the class through a live chat designed to give participants support on theory and exercises developed during the course.…

“Oh, I'd want it to be easier, i need the delay-time value as an external input, or at least allow the constant computing to be switched on/off, what may be not that complex?..is it? Thanks for your time.” (Nov 12, 2013)
I was wondering whether you had been able to solve this issue since that message. What I am trying to achieve is to use the Data Dam to stop the continue computation of data that I don’t need, in order to decrease the CPU workload. My sketch is too heavy! Specifically I’d need a Data Dam that will let the data flow through an external Boolean value.
Thank you!…
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.
Discounts
The AA offers several discount options for participants wishing to apply as a group or participants wishing to apply for both AA Istanbul and AA Athens Visiting Schools:
1. Standard application
The AA Visiting School requires a fee of £695 per participant, which includes a £60 Visiting Membership. If you are already a member, the total fee will be reduced automatically by £60 by the online payment system. Fees are non refundable.
2. Group registration
For group applications, there will be a range of discounts depending on the number of people in the group. The discounted fee will be applied to each individual in the group.
Type A. 3-6 people group: £60 (AA Membership fee) + 635*0.75 = £536.25 (25 %) Type B. 6-15 people group: £60 + 635*0.70 = £504.5 (30%) Type C. more than 15 people group: £60 + 635*0.65 = £472.75 (35%)
3. Participants attending both AA Istanbul and AA Athens | 40% discount
For people wishing to attend both AA Istanbul 2013 and AA Athens 2013, a discount of 40% will be made for each participant. (The participant will pay the £60 membership fee only once.)
£60 (AA Membership fee) + (635*0.60)*2 = £822

with Istanbul Technical University, will continue to rediscover verticality through novel generative design techniques and large-scale physical prototypes. Abstracted as a fusion of various sub-systems, each subsystem of the tower will be investigated in relation to their various performance criteria. The correlations between the separate sets of performance criteria and evaluation methods will be analyzed, leading to the generation of unified design alternatives for a vertical system typology. In addition to the custom-made digital design and evaluation tools supporting the core methodology, Vertical Interventions will also highlight the fabrication and assembly of a large scale working prototype integrating the performative characteristics of each system in examination.
