Eran Ben-Joseph: LunchMEAT

Eran Ben-Joseph, a planning professor at MIT, joined Utile on Friday August 31st to share his work on urban design simulation tools. He discussed several prototypes for visualizing urban design proposals and their massing, environmental and transportation impacts. A collaboration between MIT’s planning department and the Media Lab, the projects rely on cameras, computers and screens to communicate building shadows, traffic patterns and other data in real-time while individuals work with physical models of topography and building massing.
LunchMEAT (Meaningful, Engaging, and Apropos Talks) is a weekly, in-house program that gives us the opportunity to connect with designers, developers, architects, engineers, planners and academics on topics related to architecture and planning.
