Dancing Towers Workshop
Farmax Boogie
Can we envision an environment, where urbanism becomes a collaborative platform?
One where we can have a dialogue on the different FAR’s and relation between buildings? One where the towers are reactionary towards each other, perform a dance, so to say? In this workshop a Rhino-Grasshopper environment was created in which the students explored this incentive. It resulted in a proof of concept, where a grid of 3×3 towers was controlled by I-pads, thus performing the Farmax Boogie. The result of the workshop can be seen in a short video the participants prepared to demonstrate the possible use of the sorfware.
