Mutsuro Sasaki gave a speech at Politecnico di Torino on Tuesday, 6 November 2007. He presented his recent projects and book “Flux Structures”. After the presentation, Mario Sassone and I had the opportunity to interview Mutsuro Sasaki for “Il Giornale dell’architettura”. Click here to read the interview (in Italian). Below, the flyer…

This is my first paper. It was presented at the Special Workshop on the “Advanced Numerical Analysis of Shell-like Structures”, which was held in Zagreb (26-28 September 2007). This was actually my first attempt to apply a Genetic Algorithm to optimise a simple hypar shell. The code was entirely written from…
