agent based growth algorithm

this is an agent based growth algorithm inspired by the book generative gestaltung. the result is a 1000-generation sphere structure, where each spheres color is related to its creation. done in rhinoscript.

rhinoscript + grasshopper workshop

this is the final workshop of my first rhinoscript + grasshopper course in the supplement studies for the 5th semester bachelor students at the muenster school of architecture.

the lecture gives an introduction to programming and automatizing of geometrical processes with rhinoscript and grasshopper. the aim is to create and control user specific software for architects. introduced by simple geometrical problems the basic programming topics are explained: datatypes, assembly of algorithms and recursions, orientation in scripting editors and programming syntax of rhinoscript. in a next step this knowledge is transferred to an architectonical level for getting an introduction to parametrical design with grasshopper.
