Proving Ground has a very busy fall season ahead. Both Dave Stasiuk and I are hitting the road to several events. We’re excited to talk about architecture, data, computation, comics, sci-fi, and anything geeky!
If you are at any of these events, don’t be shy!
ACADIA 2016
Proving Ground is proud sponsor of this year’s ACADIA conference hosted at the University of Michigan – Taubman College. Dave and I will have a table and be taking in lectures and paper presentations from October 27-29.
AIA Minnesota
I will be co-lecturing with HDR’s Rachel Riopel at the AIA Minnesota convention November 8-11. Our talk will look at a recent ‘knowledge assessment’ approach performed at HDR which involved analyzing over 460 staff members across 25 offices in 5 countries. The study gave us some interesting insights into how a large organization can fine tune their digital practice strategy. We also made some cool dashboards along the way!
AU2016
Autodesk University is almost upon us! I will be teaching two classes this year. The first course is a strategic discussion with my good friend Matt Goldsberry from HDR. We will be discussing trends in the uses of computational design in mainstream architectural practice. My second talk will be a technical discussion focused on using the Revit API to solve design problems. AU2016 takes place between November 15-16.
- Mainstream Computation—from Specialized Skill Set to Core Capability
- Revit API for Designers—Use Cases for Extending Creativity
