The main subject is Labyrinths and the study of complexity.The first part consists of a "reading course" on recent research literature in architecture and the sciences, such as from journals "Nexus-Mathematics and Architecture" and "Architectural Geometry". Possible mathematical themes shared by several papers will be dealt with in frontal lectures.
Numerical modelling and simulation. Objective of the course is also to learn how to choose at least two different softwares used in the architectural curriculum, and learn ho to force communication between the two; this is both in importing and exporting data, but most important, also at the level of the descriptive model, which generally goes undiscussed. In particular the use of Grasshopper.

Type of delivery of the course
First part: reading course +seminar course. Every student reads a research paper published on Nexus Network Journal or on Advances in Architectural Geometry. Individual seminar with every student showing to all the others the contents and methodology of the chosen article. Second part: revision of all software used in the past with open lectures on the use of some of the software and examples on their use and implementation in projects and a final composition.Attendance
The frequency is mandatory for 75% of the lessons.Type of evaluation
Discussion of a possible application of a course subject with a final written composition and an oral presentation.
