Guillaume Meunier has posted a Grasshopper definition which imitates acoustic raytracing in Rhino. Explore the progression of acoustic waves in a 3D space by controlling results through ray density, distribution angle and time from origin.
For those of you thinking about attending the Digital Fabrication Alliance (DFA) workshops, this is a reminder that the early bird registration period ends January 31st.
COLLABORATION
Metals in Construction 2012 - Facade Conference

Rhino Design
Completely new wizards: including more options, nevertheless easier to use. These wizards will automatically generate operations for Roughing and for a smoothing Contour. Also wizards for 2D milling and for Bitmap-to-Relief conversion are present. Five axis machining: DeskProto now supports five-axis indexed machining, for machines with CNC controlled A and B rotation axes. This makes models possible that could not have been made on a three axis machine. Multithreaded toolpath calculations: on multi-core PCs so far DeskProto could use only one core. Resulting in the CPU Usage not rising above 25% on a quad-core machine, which is annoying for long calculations. Now each operation will be assigned a core, which is much faster. Ramping now is possible, for the first movement of each operation. Ramping means that the cutter enters the material along a sloping line instead of by making a vertical drilling movement. The new Welcome screen offers a clear overview of all available options.Schindler Technologies invites you to attend a demonstration of a Solidscape high-precision 3D wax printer, Roland jewelry milling system, and RhinoGold, CAD software for jewelry designers and goldsmiths. Two sessions will be held at the Canadian Jewellers Association, in Toronto on Tuesday, February 7, 2012.
The Department of Design and Industry at San Francisco State University is seeking candidates for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Industrial Design to begin in Fall 2012, subject to financial ability.
Qualifications:
The team at modeLab has been busy. They've just announced their workshop series for Winter/Spring 2012 and they have quite a few sessions to choose from. Take a look at their schedule:
ACADIA 2012 will bring together designers, academics and practitioners who engage, question and aspire to stretch these boundaries. Architects, fabricators, engineers, media artists, technologists, software developers, hackers and others in related fields of inquiry are invited to submit works that explore, but are not limited to, the following topics:
Looking for a new job?
A company in Minneapolis, MN is looking for a Rhino 3D modeler with 3D/BIM background in architecture/commercial construction. Experience with SolidWorks, Revit, Tekla, is also desired.
Join presenter, Michael Freytag as he presents Strength and Deflection Simulation with Scan&Solve™. The free webinar will be held on Wednesday, January 18th at 11:00AM (PST). Michael will show the basic steps of using Scan&Solve, explain how to select and apply appropriate restraints and loads, and demonstrate its powerful visualization capabilities.
Simulating structural properties of Rhino solids has never been easier. Scan&Solve eliminates the need for model preprocessing, meshing, or simplifications. Just select the material, specify restraints, and apply the loads. The software will tell you if your model is strong enough and how much it will deflect.
Date: Wednesday, January 18
Time: 11:00AM (PST)
Seats are limited; registration is required.
