Artificial Intelligence Bundle 3

Joshua Vermillion is a tenured associate professor at the School of Architecture at UNLV. Forging a multi-year career in the exploration, development, and execution of “Digital Craft,” his efforts in research, pedagogy and practice belong to three primary categories: digital information as medium (computational, parametric, and algorithmic design); digital information as material (digital fabrication tools and techniques); and digital information as method (situated technologies, responsive systems, and robotics). Joshua has published and presented his peer-reviewed research and design work worldwide while continuing to experiment with novel design technologies such as AI diffusion models like MidJourney and Stable Diffusion.

Carlos Bañón is a pioneering architect and professor integrating AI, computational thinking, and digital fabrication into architectural design. Renowned for his resource-efficient, computationally-driven methodologies, he has reshaped urban landscapes and the built environment over twenty years through his practice, Subarquitectura. As a tenured faculty member at SUTD, he established the Architectural Intelligence Research Lab (AirLab) in 2015. His acclaimed work, showcased in two editions of the Venice Biennale, garnered prestigious awards like the Singapore President’s Design Award and a Nomination for the Mies Van Der Rohe Award. An influential figure in architectural education, he held visiting professor positions at leading institutions such as MIT, EPFL, and KEA, inspiring the next generations with innovative, tech-centric designs.

Ida Rasouli is an Iranian architect, multi-disciplinary designer and concept artist. She is the founder and creative director of Celeste Design Studio which focuses on the concept development process in the fields of architecture, interiors, objects and fashion. Her fascination with Ai generative tools has driven her to employ them in crafting inventive design concepts over the past year. Her work has garnered global recognition and she has collaborated with various institutions and universities, sharing her expertise on integrating AI into the architecture and design processes.
