SUMMARY:AA_Houston Visiting School
DESCRIPTION:INTERSCALESS          08 – 22 August 2012\nOve
 r the two weeks of the InterScaless workshop students develop parametr
 ic design strategies that enable them to generate design scenarios acr
 oss scales while focusing on a given conceptual framework. The challen
 ge this year is to rebuild the relationship between the emblematic str
 ucture of the Houston Astrodome and the urban structure of the city. T
 o do this we will speculate via computational systems on the possible 
 interaction between housing and local ecologies.\nStudents will work i
 n teams to explore different scales and programmes for the generation 
 of new urban relations. They will use parametric tools to renegotiate 
 multiple scales in real time while incorporating complexity given by e
 nvironmental conditions. Redefining the threshold between urban agents
  will give rise to a new syntax between architectural elements. Parame
 tric techniques and tools will be introduced during the workshop. Stud
 ents will also present and discuss selected readings relevant to the t
 opic. The aim is to open up a critical debate about how this approach 
 affects the work of the architect and redefines the language of the di
 scipline.\n\n\nFor more information visit https://rhinofablab.com/even
