Trying to find a focus after AU 2011 and it's been difficult to even find the time. Today is the first day I've been able to get back to my home office after AU. Upon return, I found myself thrust right back into grind for 3 days straight, plus dealing with a cold I must have found in Vegas...
Now that I've finally had a chance to reset, I would have to say the highlight for me this year was attending the class/lab "Playing with Energetic Supermodels" held by Matt Jezyck & Zach Kron. Not only was it a last minute addition to the schedule, they pulled off a killer lab with full datasets, handouts and presentation slides, which relied on working with pre-alpha software. The other great thing about the class was seeing the Revit/Vasari brain power in one room.
Some of my previous blog posts have given slight hints at the power now within reach, but I can now honestly say I've driven a Vasari mass element via a node workbench I built myself.
Vasari + Dynamo = AWESOME - "This is the software you've been waiting for..."
I think this will be my focus in the short term in addition to the other stuff I already have going on.
Vasari DL
Vasari Community
Dynamo DL and Community
Go get started!
P.S. - Waiting for Vasari to add a couple buttons to the Solar Radiation tool as shown in the class...
Sometimes a thing or two on yesterday, a little bit of today and some more of tomorrow...

Let the AU Festivities Commence...
Wow. What a day - the fact that I was only five minutes late to my first 5pm session is a miracle. If you know me well enough, ask me about it!
The 5pm session was a top secret NDA session which I can't really tell you about.
Afterwards, I went to the blogger social hosted by Autodesk at SushiSamba in the Palazo. It was great to see so many friends. It amazed me how despite not having really seen each other much over the last year (some not since last AU), we could simply pick up a conversation like we saw each other just yesterday. Here are a few pics from the blogger social:
