A chat on open source software, open source design tools, the cultures around them - and their growing use for architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), BIM, and beyond.
What is going on? What can game engines help with - or not - in AEC? Who can learn, who needs to learn what - and who will make money out of this? Does it help society, and the environment, or is it all ... just a game?
John Manoochehri (BASE2), Dion Moult (BlenderBIM), Yorik van Havre (FreeCAD) and Bruno Postle (Homemaker) share experiences, perspectives and outlook on what's going on and what's next.
Find out: the difference between free speech and free beer, and if Bruno is secretly on the payroll of Autodesk.
