TAC - Technically Advanced Construction
Alcune righe per diffondere anche da questo canale una interessante iniziativa.
TAC Technically Advanced Constructionis a new postgraduate course for graduates and professionals established by the Department of Building Environment Science and Technology (BEST), Politecnico di Milano and Co-de-iT. It will run for three months and will allow participants to achieve high levels of knowledge in the design-to-production process through the use of advanced digital tools for design and machines for the creation of physical models. The entire course, based at the Polytechnic of Milan, will take place through studies, workshops and working periods assisted (during the development, manufacture and test trial) by a team of highly skilled professionals and teachers (from studies and international schools like AA London, ARUP, Buro Happold, Zaha Hadid, Gehry Technologies, SPAN Architects ...). The objective is to design, prototype, and finally test multi-performative skinsthrough computational design software. Audits in progress performance of the skin will be the main feedback to optimize the final design. The course will be completed by a series of public lectures held by the same course tutors and other professionals and teachers of international renown. The course will start on January 17, 2011 and will end on April 15, 2011 (daily attendance). Registration are open until December 13, 2010.

iCERi 2010
Lo spirito divulgativo che anima le pagine di questo blog trova espressione nella pubblicazione di risultati e lavori scientifici che interessano l'universo digitale e l'architettura. Ho ritenuto così opportuno pubblicare anche in questa sede il testo integrale della presentazione che ho tenuto il 15 novembre scorso a Madrid, in occasione di iCERi 2010 - International Conference of Education, Research and Innovation.
La conferenza, che verteva sui metodi e le tecnologie rivolte alla conoscenza, all'insegnamento ed alla divulgazione del sapere è stata occasione per presentare ad un pubblico più vasto la mia teoria delle "Scatole cinesi", secondo la quale tutti i modelli digitali di astrazione usati in ingegneria ed architettura dovrebbero convergere in un unico archivio centralizzato, ricorsivamente ampliato nei contenuti via via che il progetto si sviluppa, secondo logiche auto-similari. Mi auguro che questo contributo possa trovare l'interesse di chi mi leggerà.

Info
Hai mai cercato un posto dove architettura, cultura geek e hardware vintage si incontrano davvero? Dal 2004 questo spazio è il laboratorio digitale di Simone Garagnani: qui si sperimentano idee, si collezionano storie nerd, si parla da tempo immemore di soluzioni BIM, rilievi digitali, computer graphics e retrocomputing. Ma non è nato tutto da solo: alle origini, fra i banchi universitari, c’erano anche Pasquale Squillace e Giuseppe Pernigotti. Da quei giorni, il blog è diventato una calamita per chi vuole sporcarsi le mani tra tecnologie d’epoca, cultura underground, digitalizzazione avanzata e creatività architettonica. Se ami la contaminazione tra passato, innovazione e un pizzico di ironia nerd, sei nel posto giusto.
Since 2004, this blog has been Simone Garagnani's digital playground - where geek culture, science, architecture, engineering ITs and vintage hardware come together. Here you can find hands-on experiments with retrocomputing, stories about underground nerd culture, and in-depth explorations of BIM, high-resolution digital surveying, and computer graphics for architecture, engineering, and construction. The blog was originally launched during my university years together with Pasquale Squillace and Giuseppe Pernigotti. Over time, it has grown into a hub for anyone interested in crossing wires between technology, creative design, and the hidden treasures of digital heritage. If you're passionate about mixing past innovations with new digital adventures, and enjoy a good dose of nerd irony, welcome, you'll feel right at home!
