Day 60 - Journal activities delayed
I scheduled for today my blog page writing about CalDay, last April 22nd, but I preferred to keep my attention focused on GreenSpider v1.0, leaving my Berkeley chronicles for another day. I spent a couple of days figuring out how to make my Revit plugin work and I found some satisfactory help on priceless Jeremy Tammik pages. Even Dermott Mcmeel video has been inspiring. It took me several years to decide learning some C and Berkeley's scientific spirit, favouring a deep curious look into things, made my day!
Here's my first GreenSpider introductory page.
GreenSpider - Grasshopper 3D models streamlined to Revit
I’m often very impressed by the huge potential expressed by Rhino’s Grasshopper plugin applied to architectural design, but it’s getting really frustrating when such cool morphologies cannot be properly managed by software aimed to prepare engineered buildings.
In fact, I believe it’s crucial having interchange tools aiding architects and engineers to talk seamlessly to each other. And as I always repeat, BIM is the key.
Here’s the GreenSpider introductory page.
Day 47 - The city of angels
Last week I was in L.A. with Luisa; she attended a three-day conference organized by American Planning Association, a gigantic meeting collecting nearly five thousands people from all over the U.S. We both attended the talking dinner where "Planning Los Angeles" was presented. It was such a pleasant night.

Day 35 - Research keeps goin'
A lot of work to do kept me away from the net last days. After four weeks in Berkeley, it’s time to take stock of the situation and summing up what I have done so far.

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!
