A *geodesic* is often confused with a “shortest path" on a surface, but in general a geodesic can be any path that locally minimizes length—or equivalently, that exhibits no tangential acceleration.
Check out this video for a visual intro to geodesics: youtube.com/watch?v=uojNGbVt…

Molt contentes d'haver pogut establir sinergies amb el MPDA Master’s degree Parametric Design in Architecture de @la_UPC i TP Arquitectura i Construcció Tèxtil amb la instal·lació d’aquesta carpa espectacular!

Stoked to announce that @AlanRynne, after hacking and teaching with #speckle, has joined the ranks of full time #specklers 🥳 to help us build that 2.0 🦸
Welcome @AlanRynne!

Poles of a complex function can be nicely visualized as vector field singularities—but are rarely drawn that way (try Google images!). In computer graphics, vector field singularities can be thought of as poles and zeros of complex functions—but are rarely understood that way!

De nuestra experiencia con #estadios aprendemos la importancia de racionalizar la estructura y la necesidad de automatización. Un buen workflow desde la toma de datos, nube de puntos y el uso de #Excel #Rhino #Grasshopper #Dynamo y #Revit es fundamental ow.ly/wa3K30o3nyd

Steiner's formula beautifully shows that mean and Gaussian curvature can be viewed as the 1st and 2nd derivative of surface area as an (idealized!) ice cube melts. Using differential forms, this relationship can be derived in just a few short lines: brickisland.net/DDGSpring201…

Thanks to @MPDA_bcnTech for a fun and insightful workshop this week! Great to compare analytical results from Kangaroo2/K2Engineering with physical prototypes and observing good agreement between the two.
