"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

BIM @ PoliTO – 26.04.2017

In thanking prof. Anna Osello and Massimiliano Lo Turco for their very kind invitation, and the brave students for their attention, as I promised you can find at this link the presentation I used for my lecture today. It’s the same one but I swear that slides are in focus so you probably won’t need my gesuring in order to figure out what’s in them. The presentation, as usual, can be copied, shared, reused, referenced and recycled for any legal and polite use you might think of. Knock yourselves out.

As you don’t have many texts in the slides, following you find a list of the projects that are referenced in the presentation.

  1. Le Corbusier, Houses for artisans (it’s the project in the cover page);
  2. Antoni Gaudì, Sagrada Familia and Casa Batllo. If you want to check out the work of the digital master who is trying to finish Gaudi’s job on the Sagrada Familia, you might want to look for Mark Burry;
  3. Eero Saarinen, Gateway Arch;
  4. Sergio Musmeci, Ponte sul Basento;
  5. Luigi Moretti: study for a stadium, Casa Balilla and a most hated building in c.so Italia, Milano;
  6. Frank Gehry: Guggenheim in Bilbao and the New York Beekman Tower (nr.8 Spruce Street);
  7. Zaha Hadid and Design to Producion, Hungeburg Funicular Station in Innsbruck;
  8. SHoP, Porter House;
  9. Adam Modesitt, Cenotaph for Richard Feynman;
  10. Arthur Harsuvanakit and Brittany Presten, Elbo chair;
  11. Bastian Schaefer (under the supervision of —), new Airbus cabin partition (see, that was the word I was looking for!);
  12. Flux Metro (the platform is down, but you can find lots of tutorial videos about the project);
  13. Google Sunroof;
  14. Buro Happold, Smart Space Analyzer.

ISO/DIS 19650-1:2026 — Back to the Future

Well, the new draft of the ISO 19650 has been out for public consultation for a week, now, and I have the feeling nobody’s actually consulting the thing, because the heat of the debate has been around the “disappearance of BIM”. I already wrote about

Metafisica / Metafisiche

What a splendid exhibition! I was expecting your regular, run-of-the-mill show at Palazzo Reale, which is usually good enough, but I was surprised at the depth and width of this new endeavour, that spans across the city with multiple initiatives and, even within the show
