This Thursday, July 21st, DManD CodeKitchen is hosting its 4th Kitchen: Evolutionary Structures: Introduction to bio-inspired design computing with Grasshopper 3-D. Participants will learn how to use basic genetic algorithm-based optimization methods to generate and visualize design alternatives.

The activity will cover the topic of genetic algorithms, demonstrating the basics of parametric design modelling using Grasshopper 3-D and structural analysis using open-source software.

Participants are encouraged to design fabricate small 3-D printed structural objects using Objet Connex Multi-material Printer.
