Special guest Wassim Jabi of Topologic BIM joins the podcast to talk about how Topologic grew out of a need to build lightweight models that are adept at representing space rather than merely components and assemblies of manufactured parts, the notion of a spatial vocabulary and creating a ‘dictionary of dictionaries’ in architectural design software, why the concepts in Topologic have incredible utility for practitioners today, the value of Topologic and the library being open source, how it works and what the existing platforms that it works within are (including the excitement around other open source software including FreeCAD, Blender, and BlenderBIM), making the case for why there’s no risk in using open source software, why the Topologic team is rethinking the BIM process by going from simplicity to complexity rather than how other BIM platforms force us to make something complex up front which in turn makes it more difficult to change things later, how this approach gives the design team the ability to ask the model questions and get meaningful answers, the idea of ‘material passports’ and the blockchain, how digital twins fit into this from an owner’s point of view, where things might be headed in the future with this groundwork that’s been laid, and more.

Special guest Ian Janicki of Outfit joins the podcast to talk about ‘The Moment‘.The Moment serves as a backdrop to kick off a conversation about what we're seeing happening in AEC Tech. The moniker is in reference to the unforeseen convergence of several tech companies in the mid 1990's that brought so-called extreme sports into the mainstream. We then use this as a framework to examine which startups currently working (possibly/hopefully in concert with one another) toward The Moment for AEC.Steve Jobs said in his 2005 Stanford Commencement Address: “You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.”In this episode we explore the topics of platforms and apps, puzzles and puzzle pieces, infrastructure and API's, what's changing and what's not changing in the next 10 years, the choice to work on hard projects versus latching on to shiny objects, moving bits versus marshaling atoms, and more.LinksOutfitIan on TwitterOutfit on TwitterOutfit on InstagramIan on LinkedInEvan's AEC // Tech twitter listArchitechie website and Slack channelHypar – TRXL 003: ‘A Local Maxima’, with Ian KeoughTestFit – TRXL 005: ’BIM is a T-Rex‘, with Clifton HarnessUpcodes – TRXL 021: ‘Standing on the Shoulders of Giants’, with Scott ReynoldsReonomyXamarinKaterraCheck out my other podcasts too: Archispeak and PeopleverseMy YouTube channelConnect with EvanTwitterLinkedInInstagramYouTubeEmailSponsorArchIT offers Complete IT Solutions for Architecture, Design, and Engineering firms.
