Our goal is to use our extensive knowledge in generative design not only for our clients, we also want to pass our knowledge on. We do this in the form of lectures, publications, articles, tutorials, workshops and teaching at universities.
Publications
The book »Generative Gestaltung« offers an insight into the world of generative design. A richly illustrated collection of example projects by current designers and artists shows the range of possibilities and at the same time offers stimulating inspirations. In an extensive didactic section, the reader gets the chance to recieve a feeling for generative design by experimenting with explained example projects.

For the issue 05.11 of weave we wrote a seven page article about the form of meta data: »Immaterials – Data between visibility and invisibility« and also did the cover with an illustration of invisible electromagnetic fields, this project shapes fictional data using the photographic technique of procedural lightpainting.

For the issue 05.10 of weave we did not only make the lasercut cover for (»Making of« blogpost), but also wrote a six page article about different digital fabrication technologies and products using them.

Lecture
Needless to say, as designers, we all make use of the universal machine computer. However, the common software tools are practically the same as the digital images of the tools of earlier times.
They make work more efficient and comfortable for us, but the essential aspect, which is the design process, hasn’t changed much since then. Generative design differs from the classical approach in exactly this fundamental point: in the generative design process, a visual idea isn’t implemented by hand, it’s translated into a ruleset and programmed. This results in new and unsuspected possibilities for the designer.
In their lecture »Generative Design«, Julia Laub and Benedikt Groß talk about the process and possibilities of generative design and give an insight to the homonymous book, which was published by Verlag Hermann Schmidt Mainz on this subject.
