Today, we had midterm review with 1st year students. They have been working on the development of non-liner tensegrity canopy, and the review was focused on design systems, aiming for their work to be developed and built as full-scale pavilions next year. The students will continue developing their work with Rhino+Grasshopper and Processing. Later in the semester, Maya and a structural analysis plugin, developed by Daisuke Hirose who teaches our Maya class, will be used for structural analysis.
