The new bimorph.com website is live!
@bimorphBIM engineers high-performance custom software for AEC and manufacturing. From algorithmic solvers to Rhino.Inside integrations, our new site showcases how we solve complex design challenges for industry leaders.
Tomorrow we're teaching Murmurate live online: a one-day workshop on wrapping Grasshopper definitions as MCP tools and calling them from Claude in plain language.
Wed 28 Oct, 10:00–15:00 GMT. It's in public beta, so attendees can set it up tonight.

ALT Workshop graphic for Grasshopper MCP using Murmurate, a live online workshop on Wednesday 28 October 2026, 10:00–15:00 GMT, taught live by the team building Murmurate. A prompt asks an AI assistant to populate the selected geometry with blocks of people as editable Grasshopper nodes, beside the Rhino result and the Populate People cluster on the Grasshopper canvas.
We've built Murmurate, a plugin that turns an existing Grasshopper definition into a tool an AI assistant can run over MCP, with no config file, terminal or API key.
We're teaching it live online on Wed 28 Oct, and everyone attending gets early access.

JUST IN: 🇨🇳🇪🇺 China and European Union in talks to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.
For single-purpose functions with no need for long term support, visual programming works. For complex applications requiring multiple developers, source control, debugging & other language features which VP in unable to offer, it doesn't work.

These statistics cannot be verified as most of these codebases are private.
For the ones that are open they are either not matching:
