lite’ of education that promotes the Architectural Association’s exclusive, intensive form of teaching and learning around the country. AA Greece VS aims on visiting a different city each year and construct a single large-scale model which will act as an active nod of communication among the various locations.
In 2014, the School will initiate its design agenda with an architectural approach that is focused on the aspect of connection. The city of Patras which is the starting node of AA Greece VS, was chosen by the European Commission to be the European Capital of Culture for the year 2006. The concept of the event revolved around the main theme of "Bridges" and "Dialogues", drawing benefit from the city's rich history and its position as a "Gate to the West", to underline the essence of the productive interaction of culture and civilizations in Europe. The AA Greece Visiting School investigates how well existing buildings with various sightlines and variant spatial grammars perform according to human perception. In sync with the flexible and adaptive concept of parasitical structures, the research focuses on the making of transformable large-scale creations that accentuate prominent architectural features of existing buildings. The research looks at how cultural factors, specific preferences, experiences, and expectations can lead to the transformation of architectural parasitical structures.

se will dramatically alter your creative process. This webinar will focus on creating algorithms using lists and transformations in Grasshopper, iteratively developing geometries inspired by nature. Through a series of short presentations and “live” case studies, learn strategies to discover forms that are defined by simple rules and incremental creation.
This webinar will last 2.5 hours including multiple open Q & A sessions. With two instructors offering guided curriculum and continuous support it is our goal to provide you with an in-depth and personal learning experience. A video of the webinar as well as instructor files will be uploaded after the broadcast – all participants will have unlimited access to the webinar content and this video online. Registration can be found below. We look forward to your participation!
Topics:
What’s an algorithm and how do I define one?
Isn’t Grasshopper already a “Graphical Algorithm Editor”? How is an Algorithmic Design different from Parametric Design?
What is the difference between incremental versus all-at-once execution? What creative opportunities does each provide?
I have a few simple transformations within my sketch. How can I compound them to discover new forms?
…
as follows.
We have a grid which consists of a collection of columns, where each column consists of a list of points. You said flattening is out of the question, so we need to cull items from each list individually.
Let's say our culling pattern is KDDDKDD (repeat as needed). K = Keep, D = Ditch. If a column contains 18 points, the pattern needs to be repeated until it is 18 items long. In this case:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
K D D D K D D K D D D K D D K D D D
We can now cull each column, but they will all be culled in the same way. By shifting the pattern one more index for each column, we can cycle the culling.
The fix incidentally is to Shift the pattern PRIOR to repeating it. Then it works as expected:

I kept adding new text every day until now... and now I have to change almost all the text I did type but... it's made of curves!
So I was wondering if anyone has ever had similar problems solved by a gh definition
In case no-one has ever had similar troubles (I think you all here are smarter than me :P) how would you proceed to create a similar definition, given all the text has same dimension and font?
I would:
a) create a set with all the possible character-curve in that Font b) create an identical set with the same characters as type
c) compare this set with every given text-curve in the drawing (issue: the number 8 is made of 3 different curve .___. same as letter B... A has 2, as D, R, O, P, p and so on...)
d) list item from set 'b' using pattern I get from 'c'
e) evenctually -this is a moonshot in the moonshot- concatenate characters at 'd' based on proximity of different character-curves (to get "ABC" as a whole text, instead of "A" "B" and "C" as separate instances)
It sounds kind of challenging!
...maybe I'm better start re-writing text NOW as it could EASILY take me a couple of days to get things done... :)…
ugh information (whether coming from environmental analysis or any kind of database), extracting and managing informations for construction processes all require an understanding of data structures in order to build seamless design-to-construction pipelines. Through visual scripting in Grasshopper (Generative modeling plug-in for Rhinoceros) participants will learn how to build and develop parametric data structures (from basic simple lists to complex data trees), data-driven geometry and envelopes and how to extract relevant informations from such models for construction processes. Participants will also develop a personal envelope project and its full design-to-construction pipeline.

nderstand each other quite well.
I will pick one piece of the PVsurface at the bottom row:
So the label "1" represents the PVsurface for which the shading diagram will be created.
Label "2" is the back facade (made of glass or opaque elements, does not matter).Label "3" represents the row of PVsurfaces above.
Now take a look at how the shading diagram would look like for the mentioned PVsurface. I made some of its parts a bit incorrect on purpose, so that I could clearly the differences a bit easier:
Label "1" would be first type of self-shading. It's the shading which prevents the PVsurface to "see" anything behind its back.Label "2" would be shading from the facade wall to which the PV surfaces are attached to. I deliberately colored it blue, to distinguish it from other two types of the shading. Otherwise it would look black.Label "3" is the second type of self-shading: the shading from the above row of PV surfaces.In literature, you won't find the terms: first and second type of self-shading. I invented them.To my knowledge, when self-shading is mention, this will probably be related with label "3" (second type of self-shading). It's the shading from the adjacent rows of PV modules in front, or like in this case above.So when I said:
You do not have to supply the surfaces additionally to the context_ input. The component will "under the hood" add them to the context_ input to account for self shading. Last year this hasn't been the case, but after the suggestion by Chris Mackey, I changed this feature.
This was related to the first type of self shading (label "1").
And when I said:
However, as we are using the PV SWH System size component, there will be no self-shading. The PV SWH System size component positions the PV rows in such a way, that no self shading will appear for the given minimalSpacingPeriod_ criteria.
This was related to the second type of self shading (label "3").
I should also mention that I made the upper photo a bit incorrect. If you would do the shading analysis, the label "3" would be almost non-existent. Here is how the shading diagram would actually look like:
As mentioned this is because PV SWH System size component will position each PVsurface row in such a way, so that there would be no second type of self shading for the chosen minimalSpacingPeriod_ criteria. In our case, as the minimalSpacingPeriod_ criteria we chose the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere from 10 to 14 hours. We should have taken from 9 to 15, but we took from 10 to 14 to as on option of lowering the distance between the PV rows.This means that there will be no second type self-shading all year round from 10 to 14 hours.
Let me know if all of this helps in any way.…
main attention is set on easy to handle interface , which should be used at a early stage of conceptual design to respond to external and internal influences in a intelligent and sustainable way.
Participants will use the software Grasshopper as a parametric modeling plug-in for Rhino. The usage of this graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3-D modeling tools open up the possibility to construct highly parametrical complex models. To generate this complexity we will use live linkages to several programs listed below:
• Autodesk Ecotect Analysis and Radiance via GECO
• Processing, Excel or Open Office via gHowl
• FEA software GSA via SSI
In this 3 intense days, the participants should learn the workflow of the plug-ins with the help of examples and get an overview of the different software’s, there possibilities for evaluating the performance of a design or the usage of additional tools to be not chained to a single system .
(e.g. parametrical accentuation, parametrical formation, parametrical reaction)

ed according to list C.
I tried replace members, but it consists of geometry, so it doesn't worked.
In list C I filtered all the indices that need to be replaced.
All items in {0;0} from C need to be replaced by List B {0;0}
All items in {0;1} from C need to be replaced by List B {0;1}
And so on...
In the end everything needs to be fed into a orient component.
G is the geometry behind list B
A is the new list (but I don't know how to create)
B is the list A of all 60 panels
To wrap up the question:
I need to have entry 1 from list B in a new list on position: 0 1 2 3 5 6 7 10 11 12 15 16 21
I need to have entry 2 from list B in the same new list on position: 4 8 9 13 14 etc. etc. etc.
I wonder how I can do this :) Thanks in advance!
