The summer is pretty much over (boo) so it's now time to start thinking about AU (yay). If nothing else it's a welcome distraction from the craziness of UK politics (which I'm following from Switzerland, making it presumably slightly less intense than it is for most of my fellow Brits). Before getting more into specific […]

An interesting post over on the DynamoBIM forum was brought to my attention, and I felt it worth reproducing it here. The Dynamo team have found a way to avoid the need to manually dispose of geometry when creating it from Python or C# – as many package developers do – which they believe will […]

At the beginning of this week I headed back across to the fine city of Zürich for a couple of days. My first port of call on Monday morning was to the NEST building on Empa's Dübendorf campus. (I've talked about NEST many times in the past, as we have an ongoing project to host […]

I feel as though I've been neglecting this blog: I've barely managed a post a week for several weeks, now: partly because of family holidays, but also because I've been heads-down on Dasher 360, working on a number of cool new features as well as shoring up some of our older code. Anyway, the kids […]

If I'd been anywhere else over the last few weeks, it would certainly have been the fine city of Toronto. The first GD for AEC Intensive Residency hosted there wrapped up, with a number of interesting outcomes generated. One has been shared by Isaac Seah on LinkedIn, and it's well worth looking into the details […]

On Tuesday I flew across to Schipol airport for another Generative Design-heavy few days in Amsterdam: I'd been asked to deliver a keynote as part of a multi-day meeting between Autodesk's account team and Arup's strategic sourcing team. The focus of the presentation was primarily Generative Design with additional information regarding Digital Twins (and specifically […]

While I was having fun in Paris, the participants at our first Generative Design for AEC Intensive Residency were having their own fun in Toronto. Here's a quick recap of the rest of the first week… Tuesday was all about Dynamo and Refinery. Our Product Managers for each presented their technologies and dug into some […]

Yesterday I hopped on the TGV Lyria in Bern to head across to Paris for a meeting with a large customer who was interested in learning more about generative design. It was nice to be heading back across to Paris – especially just before the summer break – as I have very fond memories of […]

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I'd spent some of my time at the Forge Accelerator in Barcelona migrating the Dasher 360 codebase to work with v7.0 of the Forge viewer. This version of the viewer does have breaking changes – all of which should be documented in Jaime's blog post – but I […]

Yesterday marked the first day of a very special 2-week event being held in the spiritual home of Generative Design for AEC – at least from Autodesk's perspective – our new office in the MaRS district of Toronto. (In fairness the spiritual home is probably where The Living work in New York, but the MaRS […]
