InFORMed Verticality is an advanced Grasshopper workshop aims to explore 'data embodiment strategies' to inform the generation of vertical digital morphologies through the integration of specific set of conditions and rules. Participants will explore data processing methodologies of self-organizing processes to generate digital systems using advanced mesh modeling techniques and assess their application in the development of differentiated complex systems of vertical structures; starting with a simple formation and moving into more complex ones. Participants will learn algorithmic design methodologies through the integration of selected information and data articulation to generate spatial and architectural vertical formations.
In addition to introducing participants to the principles of self-organizing systems and advanced iso-meshing techniques tailored to the generation of new typologies of vertical structures, the workshop will also introduce participants to techniques and methodologies of 3d printing.
