The other sessions will consist of group discussion through which we will explore the theoretical implications of the medium and test the limits of its use as architectural representation. This course is designed to explore computer modelling and rendering techniques and their role in the design process. The course will focus on the exploring methods of using computer animation to achieve certain goals on particular projects that will be defined by the group early in the semester. As a group the class will attempt to explore the process, tools, means and implications of using computer animation in design, architecture, spatial exploration and visualization.
