This is part of the Meshing class that Dave and I are teaching at Columbia this semester.  This video introduces Lists and Data Trees.

This video is by Dr. Eyal Nir the creator of ParaCloud and is the first video demonstrating ParaCloud GEM - a 3D pattern modeler.   
Over the next few weeks I’ll also be investigating the potential crossovers between the ParaCloud products and Grasshopper to extend the possibilities of generative design.

This is the first of a couple of videos I’ll be posting by Dr. Eyal Nir the creator of ParaCloud — a software that converts Microsoft Excel™ spreadsheets into a powerful generative and associative modeling and analysis application, and ParaCloud GEM - a 3D pattern modeler. ParaCloud products extend common CAD software capabilities with minimal changes to [...]

This is a fun little definition (Right-Click and Save As) that randomly generates some Archispeak based on controlling seed values of a random number generator.  It is based on a “Do-It-Yourself Architectural Dialogue” chart that was found on the internet.  Unfortunately, I don’t know who the original poster of this chart was, but it is great.

This is the thrid video from the 3-Day Workshop at Virginia Tech.  It covers how Grasshopper handles data matching amongst many other things.  Fair warning, they were testing the fire alarms during the recording and you can hear them going off around minute 5 and minute 10, pretty funny. 

This is the second from the 3-Day workshop at Virginia Tech.  This video covers the basics of Grasshopper components and the Grasshopper Canvas.  It also covers data types and a little bit about Grasshopper errors.  

This video was taken from a 3-Day workshop given to some dedicated students at Virginia Tech last week who have never used Grasshopper before.  We covered a lot in those three days–roughly nine hours of recorded videos.  Obviously, I won’t be able to post everything but I will post as much as possible so keep [...]
