Brief
Introduction to Grasshopper Workshop aims at providing the operational tools for visual scripting in Rhinoceros. Its main focus is to introduce data structures and methods specific to computational design.
Assigment
MSc. 1
Elaborate custom methodology for a computational design problem that incorporates:
Design objective: clearly define design objective in a short paragraph
Design strategy: outline series of geometric steps to be implemented in Gh, that will realize the design objective
Computational Flow Chart: establish logical relations between steps in a clear diagram
Implementation: to be delivered in the form of a standalone Gh script that has no additional plug-ins
MSc. 3
Elaborate custom methodology for a computational design problem that includes feed-back:
Design objective: clearly define design objective in a short paragraph
Design strategy: outline series of geometric steps to be implemented in Gh, that will realize the design objective
Computational Flow Chart: establish logical relations between steps in a clear diagram
Implementation: to be delivered in the form of a standalone Gh script with relevant plug-ins able to create feed-back loops that address the main design objective
Upload all required information on your assignment page until 15th October.
Attractors Example
Design objective: Multi criterial dynamic mapping of complex surface
Design strategy: Define and use geometric constraints – attractors - to dynamically interact with Rhino/Gh defined geometry
