Morphocode Workshop at Städelschule Architectural Class, Frankfurt

Morphocode will teach a three-day design workshop at the Städelschule Architectural Class on 15th, 17th & 18th of November, 2010.

The Städelschule Architectural Class is directed by Ben van Berkel and Johan Bettum and “provides a near domestic setting for the social and academic life of its members.”

The workshop is availble only for the students enrolled in the academic programs of SAC.

This workshop will cover the use of Cellular Automata & L-Systems in the process of generative design, including topics such as Self-organization, Pattern Formation and Complex systems, 1-D, 2-D, 3-D automata, Branching algorithms, branching models, 0L-Systems, bracketed L-Systems, turtle interpretation, fractals, etc…

We are going to present the latest version of our custom plug-in – Rabbit 0.3 to the participants of the workshop.
Rabbit 0.3 will be used to apply the theory in practice. Students will learn how to incorporate these advanced generative techniques in their design workflow using Rabbit.

The latest features of Rabbit 0.3 include 1-D Cellular automata, Excitable media models, L-System thickness control, L-System Step length control, etc..

Best,
