Practice Futures: Expanding information modelling for a new material age

Innochain announces the international conference Expanding information modelling for a new material age. It will take place in Copenhagen on 8.-9. November 2018 at the Danish Architecture Centre in the new Blox building by OMA. The conference is organised in collaboration with the Danish Bloxhub organisation and aims to create a forum for transdisciplinary and entrepreneur driven research.

The conference asks:

• What's at stake when advanced computation and fabrication enters architecture?
• How can research advance practice?
• What are models for embedded research?

The conference uses open formats to foster debate and exchange. Key notes from leading industry innovators will shape and guide the discussion.

A central part of the conference is 10 case presentations of innovative projects, that showcase results from new types of collaborations between “research in practice” and “research in academia” through working on buildings, constructions, design and data model. We invited individuals and teams from small young, as well as large and established groups and companies, which will provide new insights and outlooks in terms of advanced information modelling and its application in computation, integration of simulation and design to fabrication processes.

WHAT DOES THE TICKET INCLUDE?

2 Day conference 8-9 November 2018, BLOX, Danish Architectural Centre.
1 evening social program with boattour through Copenhagen harbour development and reception in the Innochain exhibition at KADK.
