We've added updated definitions to the data streaming and interOperations tabs, the focus topics for this week.

Be sure to check out NeoArchaic's Excel Suite for further exploration of opportunities for linkage with Excel, including a new beta Charts tool and an excellent discussion of the logics behind the "live" subroutine workflow method and embedded Excel macros.

A few updates of note to the course site:

We've added new links to the resources tab, including the group guestbook and dropbox (both require login for access), links to past AC courses, and a couple of interesting texts for further investigation.

You'll also find definitions updated to v8 for Operational Moves and List Management, this week's lecture topics. We'll be updating the remaining posted definitions over the course of the next week and adding new explorations throughout the semester.

Welcome to the 3rd edition of the Approaching Convergence course @ GSAPP + the launch of the AC2012 course section of thedisContinuum site. Using the tabs to the left, you'll find the course overview; the updated course schedule; introductory reels and lectures; a student resources section with access to site login, a categorized discussion forum, + an area exclusively for uploads + collaborative use of definitions; and this news/updates section, which will serve as our primary notification portal for the duration of the course. Additionally, thedisContinuum is home to an expanding catalogue of Grasshopper definitions and resources to serve as a basis for further exploration. Access to uploads + forums requires a login + profile, which will be established for each student over the coming week.
