Dynamo Hackathon



Interested in flexing your coding and design muscles with a group of your peers? Join us in person for the inaugural Dynamo Hackathon at Autodesk University 2014. The in-person hack starts on Monday, December 1st at 6 PM and runs through Wednesday, December 3rd. Join the Dynamo Hackathon: http://autode.sk/dynamohack

Teams can self-organize on our hacker league site and start working in the weeks preceding AU.

The in-person hack starts at 6:00 PM Monday December 1st after the Computational BIM Workshops and runs until 6:00 PM Wednesday December 3rd.

The reveal party and awards ceremony will be held at the CASE Party at the Mix Lounge Wednesday evening from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Members of the winning team will each receive a worthwhile prize, and runners up will be featured on the Dynamo website. Teams will be evaluated on their innovative use of Dynamo, how well they satisfy the brief, their creation of new Dynamo packages or reuse of existing ones, and their presentation materials.

Design Computation Symposium

Matt Jezyk – Senior Product Line Manager, AEC Conceptual Design Products, Autodesk
David Benjamin – Principal, The Living / Autodesk
Mark Burry – Director, Design Research Institute
Andy Payne – Senior Building Information Specialist, CASE inc.
Sigrid Brell-Cokcan – President, Association for Robots in Architecture
Janet Echelman – Artist, Studio Echelman

The Design Computation Symposium, on Wednesday, December 3rd from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, will explore how advanced firms are bridging the gap between Computational Design and Building Information Modeling. Speaker topics will include both pragmatic aspects of digital design in daily practice, and forward thinking ideas and research. There are three main areas of interest under this theme: • Performance-based design, simulation and analysis. • Digital fabrication and construction processes. • Data Flow between real and digital environments.
