ACADIA 2015

Recently, I had the pleasure in attending the annual ACADIA conference from 19-24 October. Hosted by the University of Cincinnati, the conference theme was ‘Computational Ecologies: Design in the Anthropocene‘. The conference comprised of two main parts: a 3-day workshop, and a 3-day conference.

There were 7 workshops offered in total:

  • Open Geo data + Performance (Elcin Ertugrul, Mostapha Sadeghipour Roudsari & Chris Mackey);
  • Bio-Agency (Igor Pantic & Soomeen Hahm);
  • Dynamo: Intro/Analysis/Optimisation (Colin McCrone & Matt Jezyk);
  • Computational BIM in Practice (Konrad Sobon & Nate Holland);
  • Prototyping Experiential Future (Shane Burger & Ana Garcia Puyol);
  • Kangaroo2: Form-finding and constraint based modelling (Daniel Piker); and
  • Robotic Woodcraft (Sigrid Brell-Cokcan, Johannes Braumann, Daniel Goldbach & Elisa Lublasser).
