summary	The paper describes the interdisciplinary course, Escaping Flatlands, focusing on improving communication between students, who were either from the field of architecture or media informatics and human-computer interaction. There were two underlying themes. The first, the integration and augmentation of digital media and haptic models, escaping the flatland of classic architectural media such as paper or screens. The second theme, expert-laymen communication in public participation, was addressed in the contextual theme and content of the course task, the communication between students of different fields, and the presentation of robust working prototypes at an architectural exhibition. Students, in groups of four, developed three interactive architectural models enhanced with digital content. The course resulted in a number of benefits to students, the chairs, and implications for research. It also led to further collabourations between the two universities involved, including cross-over Bachelor and Master Thesis.

summary	The rapid growth of complex contemporary architecture design, contributed by the advance in parametric CAD/CAM software, is accompanied by challenges in the production process; it demands both highly trained workers and technical equipments. This paper reviews current technologies in robotics-aided construction and wearable computers for generic purposes, and proposes the design of a robotic device for construction guidance. It guides the user, the worker, through the assembly process of precision modular constructions, by providing procedural mechanical or haptic assistance in the 3-dimensional positioning of building components. The device is designed to be wearable, portable, and operable as a completely stand-alone system that requires no external infrastructure. A prototype of the device is tested with a mock-up masonry construction experiment, the result of which is reported in this paper, along with discussion for future improvement and application opportunities within the context of highly developed, condensed Japanese urban environments. A greater objective of this paper is to bridge current studies in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and digital fabrication in architecture and promote the potentials of human workers in future construction scenes.

title	Multi-Dimensional Interface Based Spatial Adaption - A Prototype For A Multi-Sensory User Interface Employing Elastic Materials
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.169

summary	Patten and Ishii (2000) discovered that people are employing more versatile strategies for spatial distribution when using a tangible user interface (TUI) as opposed to a graphics user interface (GUI) (Patten & Ishii, 2000). Besides, the generated information outputs of conventional two-dimensional interacting screens are currently almost entirely addressing the visual and acoustic senses but lacking in other sensory stimuli - such as haptic, body equilibrium and sense of gravity. With the experiment described here, the multi-dimensionality of both the input on the interface and the output of the human interaction will be challenged. This paper aims to introduce a method to a real world versatile three-dimensional interface actuating a simulated spatial environment that substantiates the more unconventional sensory perception mentioned above. A physical prototype using an Arduino will be assembled to test the feasibility of the structure.

summary	In this paper we introduce mineR- a tool that integrates statistical data analysis inside the parametric design environment Grasshopper. We first discuss how the integration of statistical data analysis would improve the parametric modelling workflow. Then we present the statistical programming language R. Thereafter, we show how mineR is built to facilitate the use of R in the context of parametric modelling. Using two example cases, we demonstrate the potential of implementing mineR in the context of urban design and analysis. Finally, we discuss the results and possible further developments.

title	Case Studies on the Integration of Algorithmic Design Processes in Traditional Design Workflows
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.111

summary	Algorithmic design processes have enormous potential for architecture. Even though some large design offices have already incorporated such processes in their workflow, so far, these have not been seriously considered by the large majority of traditional small-scale studios. Nevertheless, as the integration of algorithmic techniques inside architectural studios does not require mastering programming skills, but rather taking advantage of a collaborative design process, small design studios are therefore able of using such strategies within their workflow. This paper discusses a series of challenges presented by one of these studios, where we had to integrate algorithmic design processes with the studio's traditional workflow.

title	Hidra System(!) in the tension between Internet of Things and Virtual Reality: programming meta-objects
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 908-913
summary	We will characterize the relationship between Internet of Things (IOT) and Virtual Reality (VR) as the tension between analog and digital domains, organized by several interfaces specifically developed for this study, during de course Interactive Architecture at the Architecture School - UFMG. These interfaces, referred here as programmable meta-objects (MOPs), recombine themselves to form an environment where inputs and outputs of each MOP are made available to other networked MOPs through the Hydra System (!). These MOPs can have both a physical existence (object present in physical space) and a "virtual" existence (it exists in the Virtual Reality environment).

title	'GHShot': a collaborative and distributed visual version control for Grasshopper parametric programming
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2019.3.035
source	Sousa, JP, Xavier, JP and Castro Henriques, G (eds.), Architecture in the Age of the 4th Industrial Revolution - Proceedings of the 37th eCAADe and 23rd SIGraDi Conference - Volume 3, University of Porto, Porto, Portugal, 11-13 September 2019, pp. 35-44
summary	When working with parametric models, architects typically focus on using rather structuring them (Woodbury, 2010). As a result, increasing design complexity typically means a convoluted parametric model, amplifying known problems: 'hard to understand, modify, share and reuse' (Smith 2007; Davis 2011). This practice is in contrast with conventional software-programming where programmers are known to meticulously document and structure their code with versioning tool. In this paper, we argue that versioning tools could help to manage parametric modelling complexity, as it has been showing with software counterparts. Four key features of version control: committing, differentiating, branching, and merging, and how they could be implemented in a parametric design practice are discussed. Initial user test sessions with 5 student designers using GHShot Grasshopper version control plugin (Cristie and Joyce 2018, 2017) revealed that the plugin is useful to record and overview design progression, share model, and provide a fallback mechanism.

summary	Virtual reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality is making the headlines in the newspapers and magazines today. But unlike 25 years ago when the first VR rage started with the first Cave Automatic Virtual Environments (CAVE) infrastructures VR is now a technique that is available at very low costs.Especially the recent advances and developments in low cost VR hardware mainly the Head mounted displays (HMD), in particular those that use mobile phones but also the PC based systems like the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive together with recent software developments allow this change. Naturally this is based on the interest of the Gaming Industry and the big players in the smartphone industry. But at the moment there are nearly no tools for architects available within these systems. In our point of view there is the big potential that these technologies can give new opportunities to architects and designers to use VR and AR as part of their design toolbox and not only as a presentation tool. For us this is the most important aspect. In our projects we therefore try to develop a workflow that can be easily used even without programming and scripting skills.

title	Programming Material Intelligence Using Food Waste Deposition to Trigger Automatic Three-Dimensional Formation Response in Bioplastics
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.271
source	Kepczynska-Walczak, A, Bialkowski, S (eds.), Computing for a better tomorrow - Proceedings of the 36th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Lodz University of Technology, Lodz, Poland, 19-21 September 2018, pp. 271-278
summary	Bioplastics are by their very nature parametric materials, programmable through the selection of constituent components and the ratios in which they appear, and as such present significant potential as architectural building materials for reasons beyond sustainability and biodegradability. This paper presents a system through which rigid three-dimensional doubly curved hyperbolic paraboloid shapes are automatically formed from two-dimensional sheet casts by harnessing the inherent flexibility and expressiveness of bioplastics. The system uses a gelatin-based bioplastic supplemented with granular organic matter from food waste in conjunction with a split-frame casting system that enables the self-formation of three-dimensional geometries by directing the force of the bioplastic's uniform contraction as it dries. By adjusting the food waste added to the bioplastic, its properties can be tuned according to formal and performative needs; here, dehydrated granulated orange peel and dehydrated spent espresso-ground coffee are used both to impart their inherent characteristics and also to influence the degree of curvature of the resulting bioplastic surfaces. Multi-material casts incorporating both orange peel bioplastic and coffee grounds bioplastic are shown to exert a greater influence over the degree of curvature than either bioplastic alone, and skeletonized panels are shown to exhibit the same behavior as their solid counterparts. Potential developments of the technology so as to gain greater control of the curvature performance, particularly in the direction of computer-controlled additive manufacturing, are considered, as is the potential of application in architectural scale.

title	Biomorpher: Interactive evolution for parametric design
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 16 - no. 2, 144-163
summary	Combining graph-based parametric design with metaheuristic solvers has to date focused solely on performance-based criteria and solving clearly defined objectives. In this article, we outline a new method for combining a parametric modelling environment with an interactive Cluster-Orientated Genetic Algorithm. In addition to performance criteria, evolutionary design exploration can be guided through choice alone, with user motivation that cannot be easily defined. As well as numeric parameters forming a genotype, the evolution of whole parametric definitions is discussed through the use of genetic programming. Visualisation techniques that enable mixing small populations for interactive evolution with large populations for performance-based optimisation are discussed, with examples from both academia and industry showing a wide range of applications.

title	Artisans and Digital Craft in Latin America: The contribution of architects to their creativity and production
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 1179-1186
summary	This research explores the work of a generation of Latin-American architects who use programming and fabrication with traditional artisans. In the 21st century, this scenario was empowered from experiences produced in Fab Labs and Makerspaces in the context of localisms. We look at how digital technologies improve their processes, focusing on creation, adapting to the new economy, strengthening the regional identity in the scene of globalized Design, when political discourse drives innovation and technology to its benefit. The main objective is to understand the coexistence of designers and traditional artisans, providing experiences that could strengthen the identity of design in the region.

title	Architectural Drawings Recognition and Generation through Machine Learning
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2018.156
source	ACADIA // 2018: Recalibration. On imprecisionand infidelity. [Proceedings of the 38th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-17729-7] Mexico City, Mexico 18-20 October, 2018, pp. 156-165
summary	With the development of information technology, the ideas of programming and mass calculation were introduced into the design field, resulting in the growth of computer- aided design. With the idea of designing by data, we began to manipulate data directly, and interpret data through design works. Machine Learning as a decision making tool has been widely used in many fields. It can be used to analyze large amounts of data and predict future changes. Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is a model framework in machine learning. It’s specially designed to learn and generate output data with similar or identical characteristics. Pix2pixHD is a modified version of GAN that learns image data in pairs and generates new images based on the input. The author applied pix2pixHD in recognizing and generating architectural drawings, marking rooms with different colors and then generating apartment plans through two convolutional neural networks. Next, in order to understand how these networks work, the author analyzed their framework, and provided an explanation of the three working principles of the networks, convolution layer, residual network layer and deconvolution layer. Lastly, in order to visualize the networks in architectural drawings, the author derived data from different layer and different training epochs, and visualized the findings as gray scale images. It was found that the features of the architectural plan drawings have been gradually learned and stored as parameters in the networks. As the networks get deeper and the training epoch increases, the features in the graph become more concise and clearer. This phenomenon may be inspiring in understanding the designing behavior of humans.

summary	Non-manifold topology (NMT) allows the user to construct light-weight conceptual spatial architectural models which define the overall enclosure and the internal cellular division within that enclosure. The objective of this workshop is to give participants hands-on opportunities with a new software library that we have been developing under a research grant from the Leverhulme Trust. On the first day, the concepts of non-manifold topology will be introduced, including non-regular modelling operations. On the second day, we will introduce two plug-ins, which have been interfaced to our NMT tools: a) building energy simulation using OpenStudio and EnergyPlus and b) structural analysis software.

summary	This paper describes non-manifold topology (NMT) as it relates to the field of architecture and presents Topologic, an open-source software modelling library enabling hierarchical and topological representations of architectural spaces, buildings and artefacts through NMT. Topologic is designed as a core library and additional plugins to visual data flow programming (VDFP) software. The software architecture and class hierarchy are explained and two domain-specific demonstrative tools (TopologicEnergy and TopologicStructure) are presented to illustrate how third-party software developers could use Topologic to build their own solutions. The paper concludes with a reflection on the benefits and limitations of NMT in the design and simulation workflows and outlines future work.

summary	The paper aims to address methods of creating a system for design through material studies that are employed as feedback on a computational digital model. The case study described in this paper is the output of an exploration that has investigated physical transformation, interaction and wood materiality over the period of two weeks of the international architecture programme AA Athens Visiting School in Greece. Real-time performative form-responsive methods based on bending and stretching have been developed and simulated in an open-source programming environment. The output of the simulation has been informed by the results of material tests that took place in parallel and have served as inputs for the fine-tuning of the simulation. Final conclusions were made possible from these explorations that enabled the fabrication of a prototype using wood veneer at one-to-one scale. From a pedagogical aspect, the research main focus is to improve the quality of architectural education by learning through making. This is made possible using advanced computational techniques and coupling them with material studies towards an integrated system for architectural prototypes within a limited time frame.

summary	Parametric modelling is a very trending topic in the Architecture Engineering and Construction industry. There is an ever-growing challenge in the industry about how it is possible to document freeform and very design-oriented projects (created in Rhinoceros) in BIM. The ultimate goal of architectural and design projects is to be able to realize the building based on the 2D documentation. Currently Rhinoceros and Grasshopper are the industry-leading algorithmic solutions in the AEC industry. To complement such workflows, GRAPHISOFT developed a live connection between Grasshopper and ARCHICAD in order to generate BIM models, directly from the Visual Programming Interface (Grasshopper) and bridge the gap between the freeform, conceptual- and the BIM worlds.

summary	This paper, presents an ongoing work entitled ICARUS, an abbreviation for 'Integrating Computerized ARchitecture with USers'. The aim of this work is to develop an open source platform for computer programming implemented in architecture, for teaching and research. In particular, the platform provides the framework for a simplified and user friendly textual programming methodology for the needs of our architectural institution. It consists of several modules like coding, plug-in and repository development, targeting to be publicly available in the future. The platform is created based on the Python programming language, which is run in Grasshopper, a plug-in for Rhino 3D. In the first phase of ICARUS development, several case studies within the framework of a postgraduate course are conducted, aiming at providing an overview of its potentials, limitations and generally, its impact on establishing a useful methodology for algorithmic thinking among students with little or no prior computer programming skills.
