Programmed morphologies

About programmed morphology course

This course is aimed to teach the principles of parametric design using the Grasshopper plugin for Rhino. You will learn the key features of a parametric design approach and how it benefits its application to your design tasks. We will also cover in-depth how does Grasshopper works, its interface and how to manage and organize information on it.

Course description: algorithmic design, modelling and data structures

Scripting & Logic in design processes are constantly evolving and contributing to new innovative design workflows. The new digital techniques, combined with human sensibility and manual (analog) techniques, are opening new grounds of design exploration that are directed towards seamless integration of form, material, and applied forces. This integrated process entails a shift from traditional form-finding techniques to processes of a generative and performative nature. A two-day workshop on Scripting & Logic in Architecture & Design using Grasshopper and Python scripting.

The workshop will introduce the basics of grasshopper with visual scripting. It will discuss methods of parametric design, algorithmic modelling techniques, and advanced data management for the generation and control of complex shapes using python/grasshopper.

The workshop will be focused to cover up several modules along with the introduction of various fractal geometries based over mathematical platforms like grasshopper for Rhinoceros. Tools like processing, Mandelbulb 3d, Apophysis, Python scripting related to the generation of fractal geometries and methodology of programming will also be discussed and experimented in the module. It will cover the most important aspect of the visual programming software that will include lectures and guided practical exercises.

Classrooms will be conducted at SPARRO Studio, New Delhi

Classroom competitions

Classroom competitions are a part of this series of workshops and are meant for all the designers who want to explore their way with hands-on experience to gain skills and create real-world projects. Under this series, you participate in workshops at one of these Micro-studio and get awarded a trophy. In association with UNI, we are now expanding our vision of creating these micro-studios globally with a fusion of online design community and offline classrooms. This fusion will help us in combining different ideologies and diverse methodologies, to create a continuum that links ideas such as exploration, debate and collaboration at a global level to understand and create ‘Architecture of Everything.

EDUpass

EDUpass is a pass that can be used to participate in any workshop in this series (registration to be done 3 days prior to the commencement of the workshop). Multiple EDUpasses can be purchased and used in a group to attend a single workshop or a single participant can register for multiple workshops. For example, If you had purchased 6 passes, you can register for 6 different workshops or bring along 5 other friends/colleagues with you to attend a single workshop of your choice.

How does it work?

A Participant can purchase as many passes as he/she wants and 1 PASS permits entry to any 1 workshop and classroom competition of his/her choice.
