Podcasts about Generative design

Transcend is fundamentally changing how engineers design our world's essential infrastructure through their generative design platform. With $35 million in funding, including investment from industry giant Autodesk, Transcend is automating and optimizing the planning and conceptual design phases for infrastructure projects that typically cost tens to hundreds of millions of dollars. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we spoke with Adam Tank about how Transcend is creating an entirely new category while helping societies build more sustainable, efficient infrastructure from wastewater treatment plants to power systems. Topics Discussed: How Transcend's platform automates preliminary infrastructure design that traditionally requires months of manual work The shift from a consumption-based pricing model to a flat-rate subscription that accelerated user adoption Building a brand in a highly technical, conservative engineering market Leveraging trade partnerships and owned media to educate potential customers The importance of creating a category around "Generative Design for Critical Infrastructure" How strategic investment from Autodesk removed concerns about startup viability The challenge of selling to technical stakeholders who are resistant to change   GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Validate before building: Adam emphasizes trying to sell your solution before building it. "A lot of entrepreneurs fall into this mindset of 'if you build it, they will come'... Selling it, marketing it, is substantially harder in most cases than building the actual product itself." Education-first marketing for technical buyers: When selling to engineers, plan for 10x more educational content than you might expect. "If I thought we needed to spend four hours a week doing it, we're spending 40 hours a week doing it across both sales and marketing teams." Create webinars, case studies, and detailed content that helps your technical audience understand and trust your solution. Invest in owned media channels: Don't rely solely on platforms you don't control. Transcend created a newsletter reaching 16,000 engineers worldwide that isn't directly branded as Transcend but provides immense value and establishes authority. "If you rely on SEO only, or LinkedIn only... anything can change overnight." Leverage trade partners for amplified reach: Instead of building everything yourself, tap into established networks in your industry. "We'll spend upwards of $5,000 to tap into someone else's network... and we'll get a thousand or more registrants and we've had half or more show up to the webinar, which is almost unheard of." Challenge assumptions with data: Events are often assumed to be critical for relationship-based B2B sales, but Transcend found that "online events, webinars, our newsletters, our social media even, are far more consistent generator of high quality leads than events are for the spend." Rethink pricing to encourage adoption: For complex products requiring significant user education, consumption-based pricing can unintentionally discourage exploration. "We made a big change about a year and a half or so into the company to move away from that consumption based pricing into just a flat rate model... We just want them in the tool, we just want them playing around with it." Balance founder personal brand with company visibility: Adam maintains what he calls a "70-20-10" approach—70% water industry focus, 20% Transcend, and 10% personal. "People like to buy from people. They don't buy from companies. So the extent that a company can have a face that's out front that they can get to know and trust... is super important." // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co

TODAY'S GUEST   Today, we talk about the practice of design, and how designers who learn to work with and understand technology can bring a humanistic, creative perspective to technology that can truly transform our understanding of what it can do. I've long believed that advanced technology can be beautiful, poetic, and philosophical in nature. In fact, that's what's called for in an age where tech shapes our lives, takes an increasingly greater part in creative work, and even makes decisions for us.   That's why it was so rewarding to sit down with Che-Wei Wang and Taylor Levy, the married couple behind CW&T. They've managed to carve out the space for their own creative, almost contemplative practice.   Their studio, CW&T, is an award-winning design practice creating mind-bending products. Over the last 13 years, their work has spanned from interactive software to human scale tools that enhance our relationships to work, life, and time. They center around an iterative process of sketching, prototyping, testing, writing code, machining parts, and building each addition themselves to assess their intuitions around improving everyday experiences. Their projects range from devices that alter the perception of time, an electronics curriculum for artists, an astrological compass for space travelers, to objects engineered to last multiple generations.   Wang and Levy lecture extensively, and they teach courses on time, electronics, hardware, programming, inflatables, and morphology at Pratt Institute, New York University, and the School for Poetic Computation. In 2022, they won the National Design Award for Product Design from Cooper Hewitt.   We spoke in mid-November 2022, and I was excited to talk to them after I saw some of their more thought-provoking pieces engaging with time.  I was a little concerned with my ability to interview two people at the same time. Usually, I tend to go deep with one person and I wasn't sure how the format would work, but as usually happens with creative people, the conversation took a life of its own and was a delight.   EPISODE SUMMARY   In this conversation we talk about: Being a couple who works together. Balancing parenthood with business and creative design work. The gratitude they feel for being able to have an ongoing creative practice. Their creative principles. Why they insist on building what they want to see. What does the phrase "buy lots of lottery tickets" mean to them? Their origin story. What did Che-Wei learn while fixing his dad's typewriter as a kid? What did Taylor realize about The Beatles? How did they meet and become a couple? Their creative projects, including Time Since Launch and Solid State Watch. The School for Poetic Computation. Generative design, and how it can change designers' work. The importance of learning to understand time. And how to make room for your creative practice.   We have some amazing episodes lined up for you with thinkers, designers, makers, authors, and activists answering questions like:   How can we program and control human cells? Why did the stoic philosophers think anger was the most destructive of emotions, and how did they suggest fighting it? Why are more and more people around the world turning to coliving communities as an attractive idea? And what do most people still need to understand about transgender and non-binary individuals?   But before they can get to you, these episodes need to be edited, audio mixed, and published, and Remake is now in a time of transition as I'm preparing to move my life and business back to the US with a lot of uncertainty around the future of the Israeli business.   In order to keep our team running, and protect the podcast from the vicissitudes of life, politics, and business, we're asking for your support.   If you value the podcast and the hard work that five different people are putting in on every single episode, please consider becoming a supporter or making a one-time donation at RemakePod.org/support. Or go to our website and click "Become a Supporter". You can make a one-time donation or join as a monthly or yearly supporter, which will entitle you in the future to access any premium episodes, longer versions of episodes, video interviews, and a paid Remake newsletter.   We have a lot of plans on how to make Remake into a real community and invest in more content, including short-form content. And of course, the podcast itself will always feature in-depth conversations with people who are trying to change our lives for the better. But right now, we really need your help.   So if you value what we do, please once again, go to RemakePod.org/support.   And now, without further ado, let's jump right in with Che-Wei Wang and Taylor Levy.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS   [8:09] Life in the Present [12:17] Early Childhood Lessons [16:00] A Journey to Design [23:09] Love at First Sight [27:42] CW&T [31:22] Time Since Launch [38:13] Solid State Watch [42:21] Project Principles [47:46] The School for Poetic Computation [51:49] Generative Design [56:18] A Short Sermon   EPISODE LINKS Che-Wei and Taylor's Links

Alle reden von ihnen, alle wollen sie: Innovationen. Wohl niemals zuvor haben Immobilien- und Bauwirtschaft so viel nach neuen Lösungen, Materialien, Produkten und Services gesucht, wie derzeit. ‚Not macht erfinderisch‘ könnte man sagen, denn die Herausforderungen rund um Klimawandel und Ressourcenmangel (Material & Personal gleichermaßen!) fordern von den Unternehmen neue Antworten. Aber wie macht man eigentlich Innovationen? Bei Strabag Real Estate gibt es mit Simone Walser eine Innovationsmanagerin, die sich als Impulsgeberin genau darum kümmert. Wie strukturiert man den Austausch der Mitarbeiter auch über Standorte und Ländergrenzen hinweg? Wie muss gearbeitet und kommuniziert werden? Wie stellt Strabag sicher, dass konkrete Ziele definiert und erreicht werden. Im Gespräch mit Markus Gerharz wurde klar, dass: Innovationen nicht gleich der spektakuläre Wurf sein müssen, sondern häufig im Kleinen liegen. Kommunikationsstärke und Ausdauer für Innovationsmanager unverzichtbare Eigenschaften sind. Digitalisieren im Gebäude und in Prozessen kein Selbstzweck ist. Gerade der Einsatz in der Planung kann allerdings helfen, teure und klimaschädliche Technik auf ein Minimum zu reduzieren. Das Zauberwort hierbei lautet Generative Design. Bei der Algorithmus-gesteuerten Planung finden Architekten und Planer möglichst effektive und Ressourcen sparende Lösungen. Außerdem verrät Simone Walser in der neuen Folge von InterACT Insights, wo die Menschen keine Angst vor Beton haben, was Rasierklingen mit Ihrem Berufsweg zu tun haben und warum sie beim Datenschutz keinen Spaß versteht.

Generative design is widely regarded as the Holy Grail of design engineering automation. Simply press a button, and have artificial intelligence create an optimized part. It's a supremely difficult challenge, and, like autonomous driving, is much more difficult than it appears. Engineering.com's design engineering expert Roopinder Tara discusses the state-of-the-art in generative design with Jim Anderton.

Hyperganic is a stealthy startup that wants to replace how things are currently designed and made. The company aims to disrupt CAD with a very different design paradigm using artificial intelligence and generative design. Heading up the firm is experienced entrepreneur Lin Kayser. Lin explains what Hyperganic wants to do and how it wants to do it. What follows is a fascinating look into how a company seven years in the making wants to tackle the new 3D printed world. By being procedural and letting engineers code to design parts, the company can make a real impact. If they can then define the properties of every part at the voxel level, then they could really shape how the future will be made.

Artificial intelligence helps build physical infrastructure like modular housing, skyscrapers, and factory floors. “…many problems that we wrestle with in all forms of engineering and design are very, very complex problems…those problems are beginning to reach the limits of human capacity,” says Mike Haley, the vice president of research at Autodesk. But there's hope with AI capabilities, Haley continues “This is a place where AI and humans come together very nicely because AI can actually take certain very complex problems in the world and recast them.” And where “AI and humans come together” is at the start of the process with generative design, which incorporates AI into the design process to explore solutions and ideas that a human alone might not have even considered. “You really want to be able to look at the entire lifecycle of producing something and ask yourself, ‘How can I produce this by using the least amount of energy throughout?'” This kind of thinking will reduce the impact of, not just construction, but any sort of product creation on the planet. The symbiotic human-computer relationship behind generative design is necessary to solve those “very complex problems”—including sustainability. “We are not going to have a sustainable society until we learn to build products—from mobile phones to buildings to large pieces of infrastructure—that survive the long-term,” Haley notes. The key, he says, is to start in the earliest stages of the design process. “Decisions that affect sustainability happen in the conceptual phase, when you're imagining what you're going to create.” He continues, “If you can begin to put features into software, into decision-making systems, early on, they can guide designers toward more sustainable solutions by affecting them at this early stage.” Using generative design will result in malleable solutions that anticipate future needs or requirements to avoid having to build new solutions, products, or infrastructure. “What if a building that was built for one purpose, when it needed to be turned into a different kind of building, wasn't destroyed, but it was just tweaked slightly?” That's the real opportunity here—creating a relationship between humans and computers will be foundational to the future of design. “The consequence of bringing the digital and physical together,” Haley says, “is that it creates a feedback loop between what gets created in the world and what is about to be created next time.” Show notes and references What is Generative Design, and How Can It Be Used in Manufacturing?

Today on Obsessed Show, I'm excited to chat with the president and co-owner of NYC tech-first architecture and design firm Mancini Duffy, Christian Giordano and co-owner and design principal, Jessica Mann-Amato. Christian has dubbed himself and his podcast "The Anti-Architect" and I'm excited to dig into that statement alone…and learn more about the 105-year-old firm. Drawing inspiration from some of the tech-forward companies Mancini works with—like Peloton, Disney, and Soho House—Christian and Jessica focus on technologies that propel the world of design forward. Mancini launched the Design Lab, which brings together designers, technologists, and clients to leverage VR, 3D Printing, Drones, Generative Design, and AI to break barriers limiting traditional design capabilities. I'm excited to chat with them about how they recalibrated and modernized Mancini, sparking industry-wide change. Infusing Technology into all Facets of the Design Process The Creation of their software, The Toolbelt, and its impact on the industry AND the Future of Workplace Design So without further ado, please enjoy this conversation with Christian Giordano and Jessica Mann-Amato.

Generative Design has been a hot topic of conversation for several years now, but its full range of capabilities, and how designers will use it in their everyday lives, isn't widely understood. In this episode of PRISM, Dan Harden sits down with the Head of HumanFX Research & Design for Alexa Devices at Amazon, Joanna Peña-Bickley, to get an inside look at this field of limitless possibilities. Also known as “the mother of generative design,” Joanna foresees the role of the designer shifting from a creator of individual experiences to a conductor of systems of experiences. She also reveals how AI will generate truly novel ideas in a matter of minutes, solve global problems at a higher level, and change the way we consider the world around us. Designers interested in preparing for this remarkable future today should take note.This episode also touches on: Designing for a “one size fits many” modelDesigning with more resiliency for future generationsThe new organic aesthetics, form factors, and ergonomics on the horizonThe parameters we must establish today around this evolving technology See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Maximum functions, minimum amount of materials. That needs to be part of the sustainable future of design. What technologies might be helpful for both the design and production process? We talk with Delft Design researcher Jun Wu about possible technological solutions using 3D printing for what he calls generative design: using algorithms to print the most sustainable product possible. Also in this episode: how to create more problems with your solutions, growing bridges with metal or tree vines and bicycles.
