Matt, Lira, Frame, and I, are rolling out of the wilds of New England and heading down to teach a 3 day workshop at the 2010 Association for Computer Aided Design In Architecture Conference, October 18, 19, and 20 in New York City. We'll be talking about parametric modeling and performance based design in Revit, going from basics into some fairly complex stuff.
Space is limited, looks like 10 to 15 bodies, so sign up now! Here's the official write up:
Conceptual Design in Autodesk Revit Architecture Workshop
Dates: October 18 – 20
Time: 9:00 – 4:00
Instructors:
Matt Jezyk, Senior Manager, Autodesk AEC Conceptual Design Products
Lira Nikolovska, Principal Designer, Autodesk AEC BIM User Experience
Greg Demchak, Senior Designer, Autodesk BIM User Experience
Zachary Kron, Autodesk AEC Senior Quality Assurance Analyst
Topic/Description:
Conceptual Design with Autodesk® Revit Architecture
The aim of this workshop is explore the new Revit conceptual design workflows, specifically parametric modelling and performative design using Autodesk® Revit®. The first part of the workshop will focus on the ins and outs of the new form making and manipulation tools including creation of parametric rigs to drive and modify form, surface panelization, reporting parameters and adaptive components. The second part of the workshop will focus on analysis applied early into the design process (conceptual energy analysis, solar radiation, use of structural analysis plug-ins), and will also provide overview of API features such as Analysis Visualization Framework and Dynamic Updating.
30-day trial copies of Autodesk Revit Architecture / Autodesk Revit MEP will be available for those who do not already have this software. Educational copies of Revit are available for free for students and faculty and can be downloaded in advance from http://students.autodesk.com/
I should also mention that resident Dr. Andrew Marsh is going to be teaching a killer workshop on sustainable design around the same time:
Sustainable Design Workshop
Dates: October 18
Time: 9:00 – 4:00
Instructor:
Dr. Andrew Marsh, Sr. Principal Engineer, AEC-Simulation
Topic/Description:
Performative Design with Autodesk® Ecotect® Analysis
The aim of this workshop is explore the boundaries of generative and performative design using Autodesk® Ecotect® Analysis, Autodesk® Green Building Studio® and Autodesk® Revit®.
The workshop will focus on the use iterative techniques and automated feedback from performance analysis to optimise and refine building geometry. While developing scripts in Autodesk Ecotect is quite easy and the fundamentals can be picked up during the course of the workshop, some experience with programming concepts and/or languages will be advantageous.
While mainly directed sessions, there will also be scope to develop some custom scripts, so participants are encouraged to consider problems specific to their own schemes or designs as the basis of their work. 30-day trial copies of Autodesk Ecotect Analysis and Autodesk Revit Architecture / Autodesk Revit MEP will be available for those who do not already have this software.
