Mastering Metadata with Ellipse and Grasshopper (Virtual Access)

Chicago Innovation Tech 2022 seeks to bring and create a pipeline of innovation, research, and start-ups with focus on solving and promoting innovation in the architecture, engineering, construction and operation industry (AECO). This event is a multidisciplinary collaboration of local design technologists , engineers, designers and technology enthusiasts practicing in the AEC industry. We believe this event has the potential to foster innovation and create local incubators in the area. We see this symposium and masterclass as the first steps to a new discourse in technology and innovation in the Chicago area.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the workflows used to manage some of the world’s most complex architectural projects, combining the power of Excel and Rhino’s metadata to drive design decisions and track progress. We’ll guide you through a prebuilt Grasshopper script based on a Supertall project, enabling you to track and integrate building program, structure, façade, and performance data seamlessly. You’ll also discover how to bring this information to life using Thornton Tomasetti’s cutting-edge, web-hosted visualization platform, Ellipse (<a href="http://ellipse.studio" title="http://ellipse.studio" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ellipse.studio</a>). Along the way, we’ll demonstrate how ChatGPT can rapidly generate and refine custom Python components, helping automate repetitive tasks, solve complex logic challenges, and accelerate your Grasshopper scripting workflow.By the end of this session, you’ll not only master TT’s current industry-proven workflows but also gain hands-on experience with the innovative tools shaping the future of design.
