AION AT THE CIVIL ENGINEERING AND ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT, UNIVERSITY OF CATANIA

Salvo Pappalardo will give a cycle of lecture entitled “Introduzione alla modellazione tridimensionale algoritmica e alla prototipazione rapida”. The lectures will take place on November, 29th and December 1st, 4th and 6th at the Civil Engineering and Architecture Department, University of Catania.

PARAMETRIC FIELDS 5.1 – GRASSHOPPER + GH FOR FABRICATION

The workshop, organized by Salvo Pappalardo (AION architecture) and Andrea Graziano (Co-de-iT), focuses on the development and management of relationships between information and geometry for condition-specific building envelope systems. Through visual scripting in Grasshopper (generative modeling plug-in for Rhinoceros) participants will learn how to build parametric data structures (from basic lists to complex data trees) and how to set up data-driven geometries in order to develop envelope systems and eventually to extract and organize information relevant to the manufacturing process.
