MODULAR LIGHT CLOUD


WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
ASK summer Workshop is an initiative to gather students, architects and artists for a two-week learning-working session. During the workshop we will be facing the aspect of modularity in architectural design using the most contemporary design tools. The module we will be working with is LED tube light. The goal is to use the tube light both as a structural and responsive element to create a working structure.

PARTICIPANTS
Everybody who wants to learn about new tools in design process or enhance their knowledge and apply it in real project. The program is mainly aimed at students of Architecture, Fine Art, Design, etc., but everybody interested in architecture, parametric design, fabrication and interactive installations is welcome. The number of participants is limited.

KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED
Knowledge of architectural or artistic installation design along with basic knowledge of any 3d modeling software is required.

KNOWLEDGE GAINED
Every participant will be introduced to parametric design tools, fabrication technology and open-source electronics prototyping. The software covered (in different levels) is: McNeel’s Rhinoceros 3d, Grasshopper 3d and Arduino.

CERTIFICATION
Participants will receive an official certificate for successful completion of the workshop acknowledging the software use and digital fabrication experience.

ORGANIZATION
