Computational Design | Workshop C | Programming Architecture – Interactive Environments

Information Complexity is overloading our human knowledge through different variables, parameters and constrains though, we could make use of every detail. To target the right architectural decision or expand your cone of experimental hypotheses, you have to know how to deal with such information.

Today’s technological shift enabled multi platform to be accessed by public and amateurs through different creative coding concepts.From electronics to coding, you are able to express your thoughts more clearly, precisely and with ease in geometric manipulation, computer vision, simulation, and much more

Know the interdisciplinary between creative coding and architecture for the design process and final products. Get your hands on Arduino (the famous microcontroller) and get to the interactive process through firefly for Grasshopper. Enable the more usable platforms by Processing,VVVV and openframeworks.

Content:
• Is it architecture?(Coding is difficult)
• Applications
• Concepts
• Arduino and Grasshopper(Electronics what?
• Coding
• Platforms available (vvvv-openframeworks-processing – cinder)
• Processing hands on
