I was massively surprised and honoured (look at the last speakers<\/a>) to be asked to speak at the Edinburgh Earth Observatory and AGI-Scotlands seminar series programme for 2018-2019 on the 1st of February 2019.\u00a0 \u00a0I’m known for my CityEngine work and so my theme will be around geodesign, planning, and procedural modelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As usual with these events they want a title and abstract way ahead of the event which I’ve done.\u00a0 Now I have the fear.\u00a0 \u00a0I read a tweet recently that sums this up (but can’t find it now) something about wanting the confidence of the person who wrote the title and abstract months ago…. except I wrote mine last week…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway here’s the title and abstract, please do sign-up and come say hi if you can.\u00a0 \u00a0I try and make my presentations and seminars accessible, I’m not a big fan of technical terms of the sake of it so don’t be worried about the buzzwords!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geodesign and Smarter Planning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wake up!<\/strong> The built environment professional worlds are colliding, and we cannot sit in our narrow professional cells anymore. Concepts such as 3D Geodesign<\/em>, BIM<\/em>, and software tools like Esri CityEngine<\/em> show us a collaborative future of fast scenario modelling with integrated testing, analysis and visualisation, all while collaborating online with teams of experts around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With rapid advancements in software and hardware, we are able to do more in less time. Our clients will be happier, we will be happier and hopefully the planet will be better for it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this seminar I will explain my professional journey and how it is indicative of wider changes and challenges in the built environment industries. I will discuss the emerging geodesign discipline as well as BIM and the dizzying array of standards to keep all this data moving smoothly. In my view the entertainment industry\u2019s work (gaming and movies), should also be seen as part of our all our professional futures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
