Growing matters

This workshop aims to couple spatial data and skill sets acquired thus far in SENSING MACHINES STUDIO with interactive capacities uniquely achievable through mixed reality (MR). Cooperative immersive design approaches will be introduced and configured as design environments through which projective modes of spatial practice and positively strategic architectural action will be imagined, explored, refined, and demonstrated.

In addition to the use of personal phones and tablets to design, navigate, and test augmented reality (AR) applications, participants will have access to multiple Microsoft HoloLens 2 headsets equipped with full Fologram licenses for the duration of this workshop. Rhino 7 (www.rhino3d.com), Grasshopper (www.grasshopper3d.com), and Fologram (www.fologram.com) will be the primary software platforms.

Growing matter along Pujades st. in 3 different ways:

1.  Organic voxel  
2. Generative design from an optimized structure
3.  Attaching particles over the structure
