cy of design communication and the control of information-flow are as important as the creativity of ideas. In response to the concurrent digital evolution emerging in the architectural industry world-wide, the Faculty of Architecture at The University of Hong Kong will host a two week intensive summer program named Digital Practice.Led by professors from The University of Hong Kong, as well as invited practitioners with expertise in practice of cutting edge digital techniques, the program offers participants opportunities to experience applications of computational tools during different stages of an architectural project, i.e. concept design, form finding and optimization, delivery, management and communication of design information under the team-based working environment. By learning advanced computational techniques through case studies in the context of Hong Kong, participants are expected to go beyond the conventional perception of technology, considering users and tools as a feedback-based entity instead of a dichotomy. The program, which is taught in English, includes a series of evening lectures related delivered by teaching staff and invited local architects.對於高品質的建築專案,創意之外,專案過程中高效的設計資訊管理和交流成為項目設計深化和實施必不可少的環節。今天,數字化技術不但改變了建築師的繪圖工具,影響了設計的過程,而且提供了工程建造和管理實施的更有效、更高效的手段。針對建築的數位化演進,香港大學建築學院將於2011年暑假期間,在香港大學建築學院舉辦“數位化實踐”國際研習班。在香港大學建築學院教授及有著相關豐富經驗的外聘實踐建築師的指導下,學員將有機會體驗在專案的不同階段(如概念設計、設計形式的生成、優化,設計資訊的管理和交流),如何有效地應用各種運算智慧化技術(從設計的數位化生成和建築資訊類比到物理模型),提升設計實施的品質,增加設計團隊對於方案的控制。我們將挑戰對於“技術”的傳統認知,即相對於使用者它不僅是工具,更是與使用者互動的媒介,二者形成一個有機的合體。研習班期間會安排系列講座,展現數位化技術在實踐工程中的廣泛應用。…
depends on that data.
So, for instance, if my component is receiving 3 strings and at some point that data changes (structurally or "physically") I have to know it to wipe the old data in my third app and send the new one.
I know that with my clunky method I'm counting more events than necessary but at least I'm on the safe side, avoiding data collision on the third app. If you have any suggestion to improve the performance and the general behaviour of the event listening system I'll appreciate it.
Thanks.

the distance between the points so the triangles it creates don't have very long sides.All my attempts were very far from the goal so I'm only uploading the population. Pictures 2 and 3 demonstrate how the software works and changes which dots to connect. The software can be found here: https://www.behance.net/gallery/10543937/Image-Triangulator-AppThank you very much!…

to run at full screen. I've gone as far as using an iPad to use as the second monitor via AirDisplay (which actually works really well) but have never been satisfied with any setup that required you to look back and forth as if at a tennis match all day long.
Not long after first using Grasshopper 3+ years ago I've had the desire for a "Live Viewport" component that would allow a live image of the 3d geometry being generated directly in the canvas. Every once in a while I search the forums with the hope of finding a solution, but always come up empty handed. Someday this might exist although for now I have found what might be the next best thing to a native "Live Viewport" component and its enabled with a small app named Sticky Previews. This app uses the task bar preview feature within Windows 7's aero interface to create custom, floating preview windows from any open window currently running. I've only just discovered the app, but it seems to do the trick and has been stable and problem free so far. -- I will post an update if I find out that I might have spoken too soon. The install allows for a 30 day trial and is $15 bucks to purchase. I just found the app and don't know anything about this group that created the app. If you happen to know of them, Id be curious to find out more.
divided windows, cramped and slow;

Just spend 10 minutes watching youtube tutorial of Vray 3 and repeat:

Else-wise you will not learn anything and spend 10x more time because you do not know what you are doing...
For plants you can download textured proxies from here:

Grasshopper vray integration is also straight forward.
Chaos group did good job for user friendly interface.…
