object-e @ ScalelessSeamless? conference.
Thursday, November 15, 2012 § 0
Tommorrow I will be presenting at the "ScalelessSeamless? Performing a Less Fragmented Architecture and Education" conference that takes place in the Münster School of Architecture in Münster, Germany. The title of the presentation is "From Fields to Agent-Based Systems" and starts at 10:00am. Here is the site of the conference and here the full program.
August 2011: Chania
Friday, September 2, 2011 § 0
I just return from an intensive 10-days-stay at Chania, where first the Sens[e-Res]ponsive Architecture workshop and then the "Rethinking the Human in Technology-Driven Architecture" conference took place. The results of both were really satisfying. The 3 student teams of the workshop worked intensively for seven days and produced some great ideas and 3 interactive installation (currently on exhibition in the Mediterranean Center of Architecture). I have to thank everyone involved in the workshop, and especially Kostis Oungrinis, Marianthi Liapi and Socratis Yiannoudes for being amazing hosts, and Maria Voyatzaki for the invitation and all the help. Hopefully the students will start uploading their projects on the workshops' blog soon, but here are some random photos:
The conference on the other hand had some great presentations and a lot of interesting ideas. Manuel DeLanda's presentation/performance was an ideal closing! My presentation was in the morning session of the second day, under the title "Network Protocols / Architectural Protocols. Encoded Design Processes in the Age of Control" The full schedule of the conference is here.
Sens[e-Res]ponsive Architecture Workshop
Friday, May 27, 2011 § 0
This August I will be part of the Sens[e-Res]ponsive Architecture Workshop. The workshop will take place during 22-29.08.2011 at the Department of Architecture at the Technical University of Crete in Chania, Greece.The overall discourse of the workshop revolves around the contextual and material frameworks of mediums, tools and techniques to create sensponsive environments that extend from useful to collaborative, developing a "sense" of their own. This year’s theme involves the design of an intriguing space for children with responsive partitions, utilizing rhino3D grasshopper with firefly and arduino. A detailed description of the theme can be found here.
The workshop will be taught by an interdisciplinary team of designers and theorists from Harvard, MIT, TU Delft, University of East London (UEL), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh) and the Technical University of Crete (TUC). More information can be found here.
The Sens[e-Res]ponsive Architecture Workshop is now open to applications. Anyone interested in participating can fill-in an application form and submit the necessary material here.
Protocol Architecture / Beyond Representation @ UPatras
Tuesday, May 24, 2011 § 0
On Wednesday (14:00) I will be at the School of Architecture of the University of Patras, where I will be giving a lecture under the title "Protocol Architecture / Beyond Representation". The subject is somewhere between encoded architectural protocols and the architectural drawing as a generative tool. The lecture will be part of the course 'Architectural Design and Digital Media'. Many thanks to Yannis Zavoleas for the invitation.
eCAADe 2010
Monday, September 20, 2010 § 0
I just returned form the eCAADe 2010 conference in Zurich where I presented Protocol Growth. Several interesting presentations (full program here). Most of them in the direction of performance/optimization (and some sustainability as well). However I was a little disappointed to see that there were very few exploring experimental design, that is new approaches to the design process... Lets see how things will be developed...
The Bankruptcy of Architecture
Monday, August 30, 2010 § 0
The 2010 KAM workshop at Chania focused this year on the concept of Bankruptcy, literary or metaphorically, and included several interesting lectures along with the 9 projects that were developed by the students. A lot of material on:

KAM Workshops 2010: The Bankruptcy of Architecture
Tuesday, August 10, 2010 § 0
This August I will be part of the 2010 KAM workshop entitled "The Bankruptcy of Architecture", which will take place from August 18th to August 27th, at Chania, Greece. Applications are still open (you can find the application form here) More information at http://www.kamworkshops.com/
Urban Performance Workshop.
Monday, May 24, 2010 § 0
Urban Performance is a workshop taking place until May 25th at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. Aim of the workshop is to explore how parameters concerning site conditions can guide the design process, while exploring at the same time the possibilities arrising from the use of industrially produced recycled materials. Here is the website of the workshop.
Visiting Professors for the workshop are Heather Woofter and Sung Ho Kim of Axi:Ome llc.

Pattern Formation on Algorithmic Design
Sunday, July 19, 2009 § 0
Algorithmic Design is a new book published in Japan that focuses on the integration of algorithmic processes in architectural design. It features a reference on the Pattern Formation class that I was teaching last year at Washington University, in the last part of the book that discuses algorithmic design and education.

Pattern Formation Models
Tuesday, February 19, 2008 § 1
Here is a link to the blog of the class that I am teaching this semester at Washington University. The class is looking at several different pattern formation models, deriving mainly from biology or mathematics, and how they can organized through the concepts of pre-formation and self-organization.
