Generative design

The Toronto team has posted a nice video looking back at July's Generative Design for AEC Residency: It was clearly an interesting event – I do hope I'll get to attend the next one. Here's a still I extracted that shows Sol Amour, Dynamo's Product Manager, hacking away at Python inside Dynamo. The Python node […]

After a quick trip to Zurich on Tuesday, on Wednesday I took the train to Paris. I'd booked a hotel that was convenient for our Paris office, and walked there from la Gare de Lyon through le Parc de Bercy. I'd made tentative plans to meet up with friends in the evening, but as they […]

After somehow adding support for acoustic analysis to the Space Analysis package, Rhys Goldstein has taken it to the next level by adding support for multiple sound sources. When Rhys first did this he was a little surprised by the results he was seeing. There were some really interesting interference patterns at the boundaries between […]

A big – and welcome – update has just been dropped by the Refinery team. I've been waiting for this one, in particular, as I expected it to work better with the MaRS graph. (I'm happy to say that it does – more on this later.) The big ticket item in the v0.35.0 (still Beta) […]

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 […]

On Thursday I had the pleasure of meeting with Jacques Levy-Bencheton and Antoine Kersse from Paris-based Brunet Saunier Architecture in Geneva. Back in July I'd been asked by Jacques and Jerome Brunet to participate in a project they were working on relating to architecture for hospitals: they're creating a book based on a series of […]

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 […]

Yesterday the registration for the Forge DevCon and Autodesk University 2019 in Las Vegas opened. It's also the time speakers can find out when their classes our scheduled: it's always with a little apprehension that I find myself checking the schedule. I'm pretty happy with the slots I have, this year, though: As you can […]

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 […]
