Limited to 25 participants.
Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series)
Prereq: Basic knowledge of Rhinoceros modeling software preferred

Rhinoceros Visual Basics - Part I (first week)
Explores design solutions using basic concepts in programming with scripting tools and 3D software. Objectives of this course are to investigate producing digital information for digital fabrication at the desktop level, to guide designers towards reaching possible solutions using automated methods, to investigate rule-based design, and to aid in developing computational processes in design. No experience in programming necessary. Must bring your own laptop.
