Interviews Atoms
Interview Atom 06
Key aspects
Demands
- Atom 06 is mostly interested in programming tools and tutorials.
- In order to really understand the different programs available and the connections between them we should somehow list these and show how the interaction between these programs works.
- Workshops explaining programs like Grasshopper and Processing organized by us are needed right now. This doesn't necessarily have to be with teachers guiding us, some clear explanation of tutorials will do fine. It is also very important that the goal of every workshop is clear, what are we making and how can we use this scripting building block within other scripts?
- Rather then a forum with discussion, Atom 06 likes to have a clear information layout, with maybe a voting system for the next workshop topic or in general what certain atoms would like to learn.
- Some sort of teachers question and answer history or archive is helpful. This way the same questions will not be asked multiple times, relieving the teachers and the students.
- Atom 06 doesn't need a intermediate device in order to contact other atoms, but they do like some clearer image of every atom than the wiki is providing now.
- An overview of past projects, maybe with workshops learning about these techniques and see what these projects are about.
- Free coffee provided by Koen's free coffee pass will help a lot!
Interview Atom 11
Key aspects
- Atom 11 is still finding their true identity. After the phase one remarks on Wednesday 13 October they are planning to redefine their concept of intimacy: what is it all about, what is the scope within this concept, and how does it relate to the chosen physical means borders.
- After they redefined their strategy for the next phase, we will contact them again in order to update this information.
Demands
- Atom 11 needs more verbal connections to the other atoms or individuals within the atoms. Right now the incentive for this direct contact is non existing. According to this atom, verbal connections will give a much more clear image of other atoms and thus the connection to them.
- A summary of the other atoms, about key aspects in their concepts and specializations within the individuals is needed to be able to quickly see who to contact for information or help. U need to be interested in another atom or person before u speak to them.
- They like to have a instant feedback while using our platform. If this feedback takes too long, then the questions asked will be irrelevant by the time the answers are received.
- When new information is gathered, related to this atom, they like to be notified directly. This is again because of the relevance of the information. Old information is most likely not useful anymore.
- audio/video comments on questions or other relevant information. This way the information stream is much more interactive and easier to process then written texts.
Interviews Teachers
Dimitrie Stefanescu
How do you communicate to your students?
- Through usb stick and email, sending the workshop files to everyone at once.
- Tutoring individuals is best, especially at the beginning. Once a problem pops up more then once, a classical half hour tutorial is needed.
How to improve this communication?
- Longer (3 day) intensive workshops are really needed to get personal with the students and actually learning them the basic skills.
- On the gh3d group there is a community with a lot of tutorials and basic scripts, here u can actually search the help for your exact problems.
What are your exact skills students can ask u about?
- On my website there are
