Geo-Talk

A G.U.I.D. based chat collaboration tool.

With an emphasis on streamlining communication and transparency during collaboration, we were excited to integrate slack--a software at the intersection of text messaging and email-- via grasshopper into the architect’s workflow. We created a code that allows you to generate channels based on a specific G.U.I.D (globally unique identifier) in rhino. We thought that using a geo-location on an object to create a chat conversation was an efficient way to sieve through multiple work processes among several people at once. Slack's software creates channels and users; a remote control panel, shown in rhino, is the interface between slack and your geometry and each G.U.I.D. is tagged and translated into a slack #hashtag conversation among users.
