I wanted to talk about the workflow and schedule of the project.
Up to this point, we have been working with the material mostly in terms of a formal/symbolic expression... but I think it would be great to use some type of algorithmic design to generate the systems or form (since that is the reason we are all coming to Tokyo). What kind of experience do people have with Rhinoscript or Grasshopper? .. or another parametric/algorithmic software? (Akinori, I see you have some experience)
Akinori was told by the team C that we must submit our wood order by March 12... so i am assuming the design must be 90% complete by this time? Perhaps we should try to finalize a concept and design direction by sunday? what does everyone think about this? This way we will have 6 days to develop the design.
Hopefully everyone can add a comment to say what they think is the best way forward.
I have some experience with grasshopper, and am able to design basic definitions.. but often need to check the online forums for help when i encounter a problem. As For Rhinoscript, I have some experience using them, but not writing them.
ReplyDeleteI have school meetings on Tuesday, so Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I will most likely be busy. However, after Tuesday I will have more time.
I will post some updated work and new design ideas soon (Friday or Saturday)... and hope we can all talk about it soon.
Is everyone familiar with grasshopper3d.com? There are some good resources there.
I think should be better that the geatest part of the prject must be done before we will arrive in Tokyo, because probabily we won't have enough time to develop it there.
ReplyDeleteI will leave Italy to go to Tokyo this Thusday, so I can work till that date for the project.
I'm thinking about the project's shape, so I guess that I will be able to post it until tomorrow.
Also I saw your ideas, and I like them very much. So If we decide to develop one of this or a mix of all of them we can start to make mock up.
Me either I'm familiar with basic definitions of Grasshopper and I also know grasshopper3d.com
