Lehrveranstaltungsinhalte:

Generative design is a rule-based process that uses mechanical devices, biological processes, computer programs, or other systems to create designs. Algorithmic processes replace manual processing in this process. The creative effort lies in the design and implementation of the rule sets and the evaluation of the results. The historical background and the pioneers of generative form generation (Buckminster Fuller, Otto Frei, and others) are introduced in the introductory lecture block, and a common vision is defined in the subsequent brainstorming session. The central part of the course is a multi-day workshop: blocked for two or three days, we focus on the collaborative exploration of generative forms: analog experiments are conducted and transformed into digital reproductions. This will include the use of programming languages optimized for generative design in a live performance context. This enables new approaches, even for those who do not yet have programming skills. All participants contribute with their special skills to a multidisciplinary exploration of the subject area. Through the intense interpersonal interaction during the workshop, new ideas and approaches emerge that will manifest themselves in finished generative designs that will also be translated into sound forms. In the final part of the course, work results will be documented and presented. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Lernergebnis:

Alumni will acquire historical background knowledge of programmed art and programmed design recreate significant milestones of generative form development using analog gene-rative mechanisms (pendulums, scaffolds for soap bubbles, etc.) learn how to design and prototype such mechanisms themselves know that there are IDEs and programming languages that are optimized for the special requirements of generative design can work better in interdisciplinary teams Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
