Pixels to Photons: Introduction to Stable Diffusion and Projection Mapping

Catalog description

This mini-course bridges parametric design, generative AI, and interactive visualization. Students will explore Grasshopper's parametric capabilities with Stable Diffusion, progressing from basic setups to advanced techniques. The focus then shifts to TouchDesigner, enabling the creation of dynamic projection mappings with Stable Diffusion outputs. Students will learn to build responsive environments, animate images, and develop real-time systems for design representation, gaining skills in computational design and AI-assisted creativity. By the end of the course, students will be able to create interactive projection mappings and animate images using Stable Diffusion, transforming digital parameters into captivating architectural visualizations and experiences.
