This is well worth watching in full screen!

Smart Geometry, TU Delft and Pirates
In November there was a Smart Geometry event at TU Delft. It was a really interesting event as it wasn’t platform specific, so people were hacking away on whatever they fancied (GC, Grasshopper, Processing, C#).
Rudi Stouffs (check out some of his work here) videoed some of the evening presentations.
There are some great talks in this bunch, Sam Joyce’s is particularly worth a go for a bit of a reflective view on structural engineering!
Mine is a dramatic speed up of the talk I gave at UTS last year. If you are interested, the slides are here.

Smart Geometry 2009 talk – so, um, it’s me
The videos from the Smart Geometry conference and alumni day are finally up. Look here for them, you might need to log in, which is a drag, but just make up a name
There is the chance to see really interesting talks from the likes of Josh Mason, Judit Kimpian & Jeroen Coenders (spooky J3 thing there) talking about using a model of generic towers to get very quick design space exploration, and a talk from Jim McBride of Makani Power Inc.
You also get the pleasure of seeing me presenting the visualising complexity group, there was some good stuff in there and I fear that my rabbit in the headlights/paralysing hangover stylings weren’t doing them justice.
It’ll be good to see how these projects pan out in the end, if you are one of the people I presented then let me know how it’s going in the comments.
This doesn’t work properly in any browser other than IE (as bentley haven’t noticed that it’s now a minority browser amongst the geeky types that will be watching these videos) so the slides won’t update automatically, might be time to brush the dust off that old IE for a few minutes.

GCR videos are up
The Future of Humanity Institute has just posted the videos from the Global Catastrophic Risks Conference conference that they had in Oxford last year.I missed it, so I’m pretty excited about getting to see these. I’m working my way through the accompanying book, so hopefully the videos will clarify things thati’m struggling with in the text.Below are links to video files of some of the lectures.
