The lecture that we gave over a month ago (wow, that went fast!), is now available online, thanks to the good folks at Bentley. Unfortunately, you also have to register with them to watch the video (they have to get something out of it right?).

CASE provided technology consulting and geometric rationalization to PARA on their finalist entry for this renowned competition to construct a temporary installation in the courtyard of P.S. 1 during their annual summer program, Warm Up. PARA's proposal, entitled Stimulator, aimed to turn excess into resource by proposing an installation of mass, rather than of surface.

CASE has been invited by Kevin Klinger and Josh Vermillion of the Institute for Digital Fabrication at Ball State University to teach a series of workshops on parametric modeling, computational design, environmental analysis and digital fabrication.

Scripted Vases | Experiments in Computational Design and Rapid-Manufacturing

These Scripted Flower Vases were completed by Steve with Jon Kontuly in 2006, as their final project for a computational design class taught by Chris Lasch of Aranda\Lasch at Stevens Institute. The goal of the project was to design a series of vases that demonstrated the algorithm used to generate the vases, didactically through their form. This was as much an editorial process, as a generative one: identifying the elements that best represent the algorithm, while still maintaining the form and function of a flower vase.
