Hey all,
This is probably the most obtuse place to post this but since there are so many IT oriented people here, it's worth a shot.
I'm currently doing my M.Arch and I'm in a computational design studio. The thing is, the coding is going way over my head as I'm much more of an arts person than a scripting one. I became primarily interested in it because it's essentially the idea of bringing what I see to be used a lot in games these days (parametric modelling) into real-life architecture.
The idea behind this course is to use computers to aid in design, using Rhinoscript, a version of Visual Basic Script. Right now the programming logic is my biggest problem as the things I'd like to do are way harder to translate into code.
For some quick examples of what I'm referring to:

Hopefully, I can find someone to bounce ideas back and forth with and act as an aid.
Please send me a pm if you think you can help. Or anything really, even just a vouch of support. :)
