Self-organizing construction is an emerging subdomain for on-site construction robots. This not only presents new challenges for robotics, but due to the stochasticity involved in such systems, impacts the modeling and prediction of resulting built structures. Self-organizing models have been explored by architects for generative design and for optimization, but so far have infrequently been studied in the context of construction. Here we present a strategy for architects to design with non-deterministic self-organizing behaviors, using interactive evolution to incorporate user judgment. We introduce our "Integrated Growth Projection" method, having implemented it into a software pipeline for early phase design. We test the software with an initial user group of architects, to see whether the method and pipeline helps them design a non-deterministic self-organizing behavior. The user group creates several hybrid controllers that reliably solve their chosen design tasks.

“…So-called developmental encodings are generally more indirect than parametric models, for example, superformulas (Gielis 2003) and compositional pattern-producing networks (CPPNs) (Stanley 2007;Clune & Lipson 2011) that vary graph topology. In architectural design, Vierlinger (2015) has recently showed how such developmental encodings can help evolve neural networks that produce drawings in anticipation of the user. The nature of the mapping is therefore an important consideration when visualising a design space and will inevitably vary depending on the parametric definition.…”

http://vdf.ch/advances-in-architectural-geometry-2016.html on the relationship between architecture and technology. Werner Sobek, whose practice operates at the interface between architecture and engineering, contributes with his expertise in lightweight constructions and his interest in performative structures. Complementary to these highly recognised professionals, Erik Demaine and Urs B. Roth contribute distinct perspectives on geometry. While they share a deep mathematical understanding and a passion for surprising "geometric discoveries" , their work methods are diametrically opposed. Erik Demaine develops his origami sculptures by engaging with computational algorithmic techniques, whereas Urs. B. Roth's heuristic search for form developed using sequences of accurate drawings and rigorous formulas that create their own peculiar aesthetic. Interesting enough, though, both consider themselves to be artists in addition to being scientists.The peer-review process for the selection of papers was managed by the scientific co-chairs, covering the domains of architecture, structural engineering, mathematics, and computer science, with the support of the scientific committee and the AAG2106 coordinator. From a very large pool of submissions, 22 papers have been accepted and included in the present proceedings. In addition, 25 posters have also been accepted for presentation, and the workshop chair has selected 12 workshop proposals for the pre-conference sessions. We extend our thanks and acknowledgements to all authors, tutors, reviewers, and organisers for their invaluable contributions to this process.External industry partners are vital to both the integrity and the execution of such a large conference. We are very pleased to have strong and highly supportive partners and industry sponsors for the AAG2016. We would like to especially thank our main sponsor ABB, our workshops sponsor Autodesk, and the conference sponsors Moog, Waagner Biro, ERNE, Evolute, Absolute Joint System, and Disney Research for their backing and guidance.Finally, we would also like to thank our colleagues and co-hosts at the Institute for Technology in Architecture (ITA), the Department of Architecture, and the ETH Zurich for their ongoing support and for providing the conference venues. We hope that you enjoy your time visiting ETH and Zurich, and wish you an excellent conference.
