summary Videogames known as “persistan worlds” have become an important object of study because of the increasing and large number of users, and the time they spent playing and interacting with them. This document presents a fragment (space and aesthetic) of the research on the discourse construction process in the Ragnarok On Line game. This work is the result of a documentary quest, analysis and ethnography work.

title Parameters in the Design Process
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2007.869

summary “Ce n’est point le navire qui naît de la forge des clous et du sciage des planches. C’est la forge des clous et du sciage des planches qui naissent de la pente vers la mer et croissance du navire” (Saint-Exupéry, 1948). The paper describes and analyses a course held at Stuttgart University, Germany dealing with the application of parameters in an architectural design process and the transformation of this process into a relational digital model. The course is introduced with special emphasis on its tasks, aims and the implicit didactic concept. It is also investigated if and how a design approach resulting from the identification and determination of parameters can lead to a creation of a unique shape. Finally the impact of the practical exercises for the final design is evaluated. The course’s structure is enhanced by the “Vorklasse” from Bauhaus and the conviction that using software is taught most effectively by working on an own specific project. At the very beginning the students get the chance to gain experiences with parameters through preliminary practical exercises, like folding and modelling and analysing. Then the use of the software is taught in several compact sessions in parallel to the design process. The impact of the early practical exercises on the subsequent design process is remarkable. Special attention is therefore given to this aspect. The aim of the lessons is to produce a proposal for the design task. The proposal is then to be presented as a parametric model representing either the global shape or a constructive detail.

title Aesthetic intelligence, Navigating High Dimensional Spaces [Estética de inteligencia, la navegación de altos espacios dimensionales]

summary Are some forms and spaces more significant than others? Can qualities of a space transcend ordinary recognition and resonate as extraordinary sensations and perceptions? Experiencing and creating objects, and images of places with iconic characteristics this is an attempt to extend dialogue into the vast dimensions of space by examining models for mapping spaces, contexts for use, and functions of elements. Finally, examples integrating these themes are presented in a pluralistic strategy for reflecting new spaces.
