Working in the basement of the John Street Studio with 7 other guys has created a unique atmosphere of “creative testosterone.”  We all get along well and push each other to work more (creating the scenario where we are all here until 11:30 at night, 7 days a week).  This has lead us to create [ READ MORE ]

Fluid Points

Since the beginning of the new semester we have been transforming the work we did through more refined techniques.  The first of these was done by Rafael over the summer.  Realizing that our point distribution was chaotic, he took a grid of points and using the fluid dynamic engine in the Maya software and developed [ READ MORE ]

Saturday was much nicer. Yusuke took us to this crazy restaurant in the basement of a Korean supermarket. We were [ READ MORE ]

Things going on around here

I just wanted to post what was going on around here. Because maybe that’s what you really want to know. Not what I was doing 3 months ago, stuff that wasn’t making any sense. Not that it does now. And that leads me to whats going on now. This semester we haven’t really worked on [ READ MORE ]

About:

This blog is part of my work with computational architecture. I studied at the AA DRL and have been working with various collaborators on projects around the world since finishing in February 2009.
