[Time Zone: GMT] All sessions/tracks are led by the following panelists, unless specified otherwise: – Hamid Hassanzadeh (Turkey/Iran) – Founder & Editor in Chief, ParametricArchitecture) – Sushant Verma (India) – Co-founder & Design Head, rat[LAB] Studio – Arturo Tedeschi (Italy) – Founder Architect & Computational Designer, A>T – Michael Pryor (USA) – Design Director & Computational Designer, DesignMorphine

Welcome Note & Set-up

12:00 PM – 12:15 PM GMT

Track 3:

Collaborative Workshop (Michael Pryor + Sushant Verma) – Bridge Design – Using Rhino 3D + Grasshopper 3D + MAYA 12:15 – 13:45 GMT Duration – 90 Minutes Michael Pryor & Sushant Verma would run a collaborative cross-platform workshop that shuffles Computational Design methods from one technique to another, integrating to build a Bridge through multiple techniques of computational overlaps. Each tutor shall build upon the program based on rational decision-making aided by computational tools, right from seating design, sightline optimization, structural skin design, environmental design integration, panelization, etc. as a part of an integrated and collaborative process. Real-time collaboration would be demonstrated between the tutors and with workshop participants to design a complex bridge using computational design methods. Taking cues from multi-scalar workshops taught in NEXT 1.0 and NEXT 2.0, this workshop transcends into new spatial experimentation for designers.
