After receiving a full scholarship, she moved to Los Angeles (USA) to study the Master of Science in Architectural Technologies at the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI_Arc), where she graduated with honors. Born in Buenos Aires, she graduated as an architect from the University of Buenos Aires (FADU, UBA) and specialized in Parametric Design (University of Palermo). Speaker: Agustina Alaines is an Argentine-Spanish architect, designer, and academic. What is the logic of natural systems, and can we discover and reproduce their rules according to numerical relationships and geometric patterns? These processes of exploration and creation can be carried out by analog or digital methods however, computers help us compute vast amounts of information (inputs) to develop artificial logics or systems that, like nature, can produce infinite results (outputs). In this webinar edition, Agustina Alaines will show us her successful use of Rhinoand Grasshopper from a different architectonical point of view.
Why did Galileo Galilei say that " nature is written in the language of mathematics"? The proposals yielded conclusive findings, revealing a fertile ground for further architectural research and involvement with the metaverse. Using both packages, the students successfully realized custom workflows to translate their projects from a familiar 3D modeling environment to interactive metaverse platforms. Through undergraduate and postgraduate programs, architecture students at the University of Nicosia are formally exposed to Rhinoceros and its graphical programmingeditor Grasshopper. The competition projects were developed during an educational intensive 1-week workshop, titled Metascapes, exploring the potential role of the architectural profession and education during the current development phase of the metaverse. The competition attracted more than 160 international entries, and the awards ceremony was hosted in Decentraland at One Times Square (-106,-119) on 23rd June 2022. The competition offered the opportunity to build, pitch, and test ideas in front of industry-leading Metaverses, protocols, organizations, and investors. A virtual buildathon, competition, and accelerator program helping to spotlight the next wave of Metaverse entrepreneurs and builders. Students of the department of Architecture ARC at the University of Nicosia participated and have been awarded in the Architecture Category at The Next Top Metaverse Build.
