Roland Snooks directed the algorithmic design seminar, Complex Morphologies, in Fall in conjunction with Roland Wahlroos-Ritter. The seminar explored methodologies that engage complex and non-linear systems to generate emergent formations. Recursive and self-organizing techniques were developed that are capable of generating complex forms of order.
In addition to developing algorithmic techniques the seminar operated as a [...]
