Sevil Sariyildiz. SpaceSyntax_for_GenerativeDesign is compatible with SpiderWeb, invented by Richard Schaffranek. We hereby thank Richard, for all we have learned from his very interesting tool kit. Space Syntax has been established as a theory of architecture and built environment that explains the correspondence between spatial configurations and behavioral patterns of people. For more information you can watch the video below or have a look at the following papers. You can download the tool suite free for educational use, from the link below this page.

Rhino to Processing and Back

This is a template to demonstrate and use the connection, which is through strings. It can also be done across networks (just change the IP and port as required) which could easily spread CPU power, or just ease workflow. Thanks to Joe S: Download files: talkToRhino.

AADRL 2013 – Algorithmic and Production Skills with Rhino + Grasshopper – Session 8: Genetic Algorithms » VITRUALITY.

In this session we will be looking at some more advanced components and methods of using grasshopper, principally focussing on Galapagos, Grasshopper’s built-in genetic algrithm solver. Along the way, we’ll also be examining Grasshopper’s metaball component and means of flow control – the Grasshopper equivalent of ‘if statements’ in coding. Example 7: Galapagos Galapagos is best used to solve problems to which the optimal solution is not immediately obvious. In this example the problem which we are going to try and solve is to examine a field of points and attempt to enclose as many of those points as possible within a closed curve of a fixed maximum length. If you want a physical analog – imagine that each point is a pin and we have a loop of string that we want to fit around as many as we can. The first step is to obtain our set of points – you can either use the one in the example file provided or create your own using the Points command and clicking lots. Metaballs Galapagos Max. 1.

Data Trees are the key to getting the most out of Grasshopper, but are widely considered to be the ‘hard bit’ and are certainly one of the parts which are least intuitively obvious and take the most getting used to. Don’t panic, though – they are not really as complicated as they first appear and while it can sometimes take a little trial and error to get the results you want from them, Grasshopper is the kind of environment that renders that kind of experimentation relatively easy. In previous sessions, we have used components that take in a single object as an input and then spit out a list of objects as a result – the Divide Curve component, for example.

But what would happen if we took one of those components and plugged in a list of objects as an input? First of all, we’re going to draw a line. Now that we have this line what are we going to do with it? What does this do? Now we have our ‘comb’.
