I was going to post that there are several Cluster Champions for the Smart Geometry 2013 Workshops here in the GH community, but actually 40% have profiles on Grasshopper3d.com.  There might be others with profiles here, but maybe they obscure their avatar name ala Web 1.0.  Also, this in no way takes into account the cases…

In Rhinocommon it is very straightforward to take control of the sun system.

The attached definition will get you there.  There are some weird things happening when I switch locations...the time gets shifted.

I need to look further as it was very quickly implemented.  As you see, only 2 lines of code to mess around with the…

Collaborative Cloud is an installation which investigates distributed and decentralized design and fabrication. The interface (in the link above)

allows you to design and give information to a piece of the cloud, thus

anyone can participate in the project's growth over the next 8 months. The physical construction will take place at the… Continue

Howl is a set of Grasshopper components which facilitate interoperability between GH and other software / hardware by leveraging several standard communication protocols. Currently we are developing components for the first release. Howl is co-authored by Giulio Piacentino and Luis… Continue

These images show a recent collaboration between Ocean CN, Crystal Design, and LaN for the Hong Kong - Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale 2009. LaN was asked to develop a custom user interface for an associative urban model in order to provide visitors to the biennale with the experience of designing their own city. Ocean CN… Continue

Current exploration into alternative interfaces for presenting and interacting with associative models. Here we see two examples of communication from an iPod Touch 2g to McNeel’s Grasshopper plug-in for Rhino. This is made possible by Open Sound Control (OSC) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). In these examples, a Processing interface was utilized to show what was going on with the iPod during the screencapture. In Processing, Stephane Cousot’s UDP library was used, as well as Andreas… Continue
