Virtual Architecture: World Building and Virtual Reality Workshop
Our built environment represents the limits of our physics and material properties. What types of architecture will emerge out of an exploration of alternative physical constraints? If cause and effect could be re-imagined, what would be the new modes of interaction with one’s environment?
Using the unique affordances enabled by Game Engines, this course wishes to explore speculative architectures, adapted to alternative physics, materials and casualties. Starting from the articulation and design of a behavior, interaction or rule, students will expand the scale and detail of their environment throughout the semester.
Through lectures, demonstrations and workshops, students will be provided with the conceptual framing and technical knowledge to assist them in the creation of a rich and interactive environment, pushing the boundaries of architectural imagination.
TAKEAWAYS • Basic understanding of scripting concepts and techniques in Unreal Engine 4. • Experience creating complex environments in Unreal Engine 4 • Ability to build and export games to PC, Mac, Mobile and VR Headsets. • Ability to integrate new skills into existing architectural design workflows
PREREQS & PREPARATION No prior scripting or gaming experience is necessary. The VS workshop will serve as an introduction to all key concepts and technical requirements.
Students will need access to a computer with the free version of Unreal Engine 4 installed.
