Grasshopper Level 3
Online Workshop
Tutor: Ping-Hsiang Chen
December 2-4, 2024
10 AM-5 PM CET (Barcelona)
Hosted on Zoom by McNeel Europe
The upcoming Grasshopper Level 3 course is for professionals seeking to broaden their understanding of Grasshopper in the design and production process. For three days, participants will have the opportunity to delve into advanced techniques in design and production under the guidance of Ping- Hsiang Chen, a former senior architect at Zaha Hadid with over 10 years of computational design experience. This course focuses on geometric manipulation, data-driven analytical approaches, advanced geometry creation with feedback loops, collaboration in data-driven workflows, and automation in Grasshopper.
On completion of this course, participants will:
- Gain better control over complex geometries
- Integrate advanced techniques in geometry creation through the implementation of feedback loops
- Automate design processes and create custom extended functions
- Foster collaboration within data-driven workflows for optimized outcomes
