Glazed building envelopes offer one of the most bizarre yet challenging grounds for research in architectural computational geometry. The problem description is quite simple: For a given surface (building envelope), generate a mesh (cladding registration) such that all faces (panels) are planar quads. This article examines various methods of generating planar quad meshes and proposes a novel algorithm suitable for free-form envelope design. Warning this article is a bit incomplete.

This article presents a method for generating Voronoi diagrams in Rhino using the QHull engine. Today there is plugin that serves similar purposes so you may want to look at it before getting into this (it should be easier). Yet at that time there was none and this is article shows how to exchange text file data with QHull.

Lecture notes for a workshop: an introductory tutorial presenting the process of setting up a parametric model in Generative Components using adaptive user-defined features, distributed over BSpline surfaces. Warning the exact code block may not work anymore due to changes in Generative Components. If you are familiar with the software you may be able to follow through using the new syntax.

Lecture notes for a workshop: an introductory tutorial on capturing environmental information and integrating behavior in parametric design. This example uses light as a driving force for interactive/responsive form-finding. The tutorial is based on Generative Components but the concepts are platform independent. Warning the exact code block may not work anymore due to changes in Generative Components. If you are familiar with the software you may be able to follow through using the new syntax.

Not articles really but stuff I did once, forgot about it and then something happened and I had to redo from scratch.
A list of hacks that went through for setting up and customizing Ubuntu. If you have a couple of spare gigs of hard drive, I suggest: go for it! It’s the first Linux distro that I finally got to do something with 8)

Nintendo Wii is great but it’s missing a proper media player. In this article I am putting together a tutorial for setting up an mp3 player using: a. A Tiny web server that pipes media through a home network b. A Flash-based media player that plays the media in the Wii internet channel and c. A vbscript that scans the local folder hierarchy and builds a playlist.
