Regarding a Radiance workshop, I am somewhat interested. Approximately
where and when would such a workshop be held? I am guessing the
workshop would be held in the Berkeley or SF area, but could you be more
specific about the time: september, october, november? Also, how
accessible would this workshop be for newbies? Raytracing is my hobby,
so I am more interested in just creating images than architectural
lighting (I am currently working my way through your book RENDERING WITH
RADIANCE).
This is really just at the idea stage, but what we were thinking about is an October 2002 workshop in Fribourg, Switzerland (an hour and a half from Geneva or about 2 hours from Zurich if I remember right). Raphael Compagnon has held three introductory Radiance tutorials over the past several years, and a few participants have asked for something more detailed as a follow-on. His intro materials have been available in the reference directory on the Radiance website for a while, but he may have a more recent update for us (Raphael?) We haven't figured out whether to set it up as a tutorial or a workshop or a bit of both, where people could present the work they are doing as well as learn some more advanced techniques. We're just asking for input at this point, and looking for interested parties. We'd probably want to recover sufficient costs for me to fly out there and perhaps one or two other Radiance experts, but I haven't investigated all the costs at this point and we need a better idea of how many participants, etc. Once I get some feedback, we'll start to flesh out some kind of agenda.

Whoa. I was assuming the west coast of the US, but then I
shouldn't assume. Count me in as "marginally interested", which
means "extremely interested but highly doubtful that I can afford it".
Sounds interesting though!

Even more interesting when you should happen to be interested
in medieval urbanism:

i'm really keen to join in too, but have the same problem with funding to get there. there will be a meeting of advanced daylighting simulators in Ottawa in October (7-11). perhaps if the timing was right we could make it to Switzerland in the same trip.
