Найти книгу: "Inside Smartgeometry"

Smartgeometry (SG) is a key influence on the architectural community who explore creative computational methods for the design of buildings. An informal international network of practitioners and researchers, the group meets annually to experiment with new technologies and collaborate to develop digital design techniques. When SG was founded in 2001 by London-based architects and friends Hugh Whitehead (Foster + Partners), J Parrish (AECOM) and Lars Hesselgren (PLP), there was little in the way of parametric tools for architecture. SG was founded to encourage the development, discussion and experimentation of digital design techniques driven by design intent rather than on construction specifications. SG calls for a re-consideration of the design process, where the creation of computational mechanisms become an integral part of designing – not a task done prior to or separate from the process. In the early years of the workshops this need for new ways of design thinking led to the development of Bentley?s GenerativeComponents software. In recent years, the ecology of these design environments has diversified to include multiple software platforms, as well as innovative fabrication techniques and interactive environments. SG has grown accordingly from a handful of experts to an international network of designers who are defining the future of design. Founded by digital pioneers, it creates the algorithmic designers of the future. Inside Smartgeometry can be seen as a retroactive manifesto for SG, examining and contextualising the work of the SG community: the digital spaces, prototypes and buildings designed using bespoke tools created in response to architectural ideas. From interactive crowd-sourcing tools to responsive agent-based systems to complex digitally fabricated structures, it explores more than a decade of advances that have been influential for architecture. Through 23 original texts including reflections by the founders, and key contributors such as Robert Aish, Martin Bechthold, Mark Burry, Chris Williams and Robert Woodbury, the book offers a critical state of the art of computational design for architecture. Many international design and engineering firms have participated in SG and the book includes chapters by practitioners from offices such as CASE, Design2Production, Foster + Partners, Grimshaw, Populous and SOM.

О чём вы будете думать, если узнаете, что скоро умрёте? Будете ли вы в отчаянии рассказывать людям обо всём плохом, что вы сделали в этой жизни? Вряд ли… А если вы окажетесь с этими людьми в запертом помещении и это будет ваша единственная и последняя возможность рассказать о своих тайнах, которые терзали и мучили всю жизнь, но в которых страшно было признаться даже самим себе? Наркотики, предательства, измены. Что ещё скрывают 9 человек в ожидании неминуемой смерти?

Leadership from the Inside Out, Kevin Cashman’s breakthrough business bestseller that clearly connected personal growth to leadership effectiveness, is now completely revised and updated with: • an explosion of new validating independent research • impressive new case studies • new tools and practices • an even more powerful virtual coaching experience  Still framed in seven simple yet profound “mastery areas,” this book serves as an integrated coaching experience that helps leaders understand how to harness their authentic, value-creating influence and elevate their impact as individuals, in teams, and in organizations. Cashman demonstrates that his trademark “whole-person” approach—we lead by virtue of who we are—is essential to sustained success in today’s talent-starved marketplace and provides a measurable return on investment. For everyone from CEOs to emerging leaders, this long-awaited second edition advances the art and science of leadership and is even more relevant today than when it was first published.

Презентация книги происходила в Калифорнии, на международном книжном фестивале. Тысячи людей со всего мира, издатели, критики… Мнение однозначное – шедевр, книга года. Авторы объединились, чтобы дать миру то, в чем он нуждался…

Гость сегодняшнего выпуска – Ренат Гришин, директор по рекламе и продвижению медиагруппы i10.ru, медиагруппы, которая объединяет как свои собственные издания (appleinsider, androidinsider, Hi-news.ru), так и сторонние (lifehacker.ru, PlanetaIphone.ru, Макрадар, Keddr и другие). Попасть с обзором своего приложения на страницы этих изданий – счастье для мобильного предпринимателя – это установки, лояльность целевой аудитории, и отличный PR. Сегодня я хочу поговорить с Ренатом о том, что дает контентный маркетинг мобильному приложению, и как его правильно делать.
