Generative Components and Graphisot: Parametric modelling

[Anonymous]

Hello all!
As the parametric thinking is taking over the CAD world I would like to know if GS is thinking about going some steps further. GS was leading in this tech but not any longer.
Generátive Components , for Microstation , is really impressive.
It is used by Foster&partners

I would be really interested if GS could developp something kind of similar.
I'm sure GS could find a way of making it easy and powerfull.
Stefan made a good explanation of what GC is about here:

I'm sure GS could developp a new concept for using GDL. To free it from its prison (the object) and make it live in the model .The new curtain wall tool is showing new possibilities.

What do you say GS? are you thinking about such developments?

I just tried the IFC import export plugins for Grasshopper by Jon Mirtschin.
It works great and opens huge possibilities for Archica:

I would like to thank GS for making a very smart move with the Grasshopper-AC connection!!
Let each company, or software, be the best in its field and have a fruitful communication with the others.
That was surely a very clever way of handling the need for parametric.
Better than Dynamo for Revit which I guess will continue to be painful underpowered version of Grasshopper.
Now I'll be hoping for a way to link GDL object parameters with Grasshopper.
