A fundamental observational error
There is an oft-repeated observational error here that continues to retard the development and use of digital modeled environments of all kinds: the metaverse is about transforming how we humans experience the digital world. Since the dawn of computing, digital content has been accessed primarily through flat media viewed in the third person. In the metaverse, our…

Jack Warner in 1926 preferred silent film over sound film (fusion). Was he right?
Jack Warner in 1926 preferred silent film over sound film (fusion). Was he right? …if a platform is able to merge the benefit of the diagram with the understanding of the model it’s feasible, but this ecosystem in a usable and versatile system seems to be a pipe dream at this point I specified the…

The “get rid of drawings” premise is unfounded, backed by no reality
The “get rid of drawings” premise is unfounded, a premise backed by no reality. The absence of foundation is due not only to the pragmatics of professional practice; it’s even worse than that. The lack of foundation is fundamental. The idea that we should operate within visual spatial modeled (or even real) environments, without the…

Certainly not before coffee
Sentient beings deploy methods of articulate expression of attentive focus within spatial visual environments, in order to effectively understand and make use of either the real world, or digital environments modeled by any means. In technical domains like design and construction [— unlike in ordinary domains like, anything, I don’t know… like waking up from…

Human in the Loop – TGN rigs in models for human engagement, guidance, and limits on AI-generated architecture and engineering and models
I wake up early this morning and see again more amazing posts (on LinkedIn) about Mid Journey V4. As that moves more and more into the design of architecture and engineering models, AFR/TGN rigs — and rig placement could even be automated by mid journey or anyone’s TGN implementation — would be a very logical…

What we mean when we say we understand
What we do when we say we understand (something), what we do, to understand, what generates understanding, what the basic observable dynamic of thought itself, is, what we mean when we say we understand, and what we’ve done to get there, I talk about here: And here my proposal for AFR/TGN development in all digital…

AFR/TGN proposed development
This post is a continuation of my ongoing call to software developers (open source and commercial), and users of software. If you want to skip past the background discussion, scroll down to the heading “200 word blurb” and continue from there. PROBLEM Introduction In our industry, architecture, engineering, and construction, I’ve heard people debating “models…

Why de-fang and de-claw your understanding?
Get your claws into your models. Develop TGN rigs in your software. A TGN advertisement: A TGN demo: My conference talk on TGN starting at the narrated demo (12:02): Un-narrated demo: The text of my talk at BIM Coordinators Summit 2022 Dublin: Perfect Match TGN and [your favorite modeling platform] are a perfect match. [Your…

Sink your Claws into your models
Someone said, years ago, yeah I remember, that I have “a worm’s eye view” of things in AEC tech, because of my interest in the function and purpose of technical drawing — the articulate expression of clarifying and affirmative attentive focus within visual spatial models of all kinds (mental, physical, digital) — and the compelling necessity for…
The Pyramid of the
Magician at Uxmal
Uxmal is an ancient Maya city located in present-day Mexico. It is considered one of the most important archaeological sites of Mayan culture.
