Grasshopper Introduction

In this presentation, we will introduce Grasshopper, a graphic algorithmic interface. Originally conceived as a tool for designers, due to its ease of learning and capability to handle data, its potential goes beyond the design domain. We will show usage examples that can be related to a number of fields, and stress an interdisciplinary approach to data analysis and data visualiztion. We will show algorithmic processes for importing GIS data, and tabular data into Grasshopper, and go over potentials for interrelating different datasets and creating new ones. This is a presentation overview of Grasshopper and therefore it is not necessary for attendees to bring a computer.
