Sub-series
Early Drawings by Goldsmith
AP032.S1.SS1.D3
Description:
This sub-series documents sketches and drawings completed during Goldsmith’s education and early career, from 1938 to 1953. The sub-series includes sketches completed while Goldsmith studied under Mies van der Rohe at the Armour Institute of Technology in Chicago (as of 2023 known as the Illinois Institute of Technology) in the late-1930s as well as Goldsmith’s notes and sketches from his trips to Taliesin East, Wisconsin, and Williamsburg, Virginia in the early-1940s. Further, the sub-series contains sketches and drawings for various buildings, infrastructure, and furniture from circa 1942-1943, in addition to sketches for the Stuart S. Borovay Residence and an unbuilt project dating from 1942 – 1953.

Series
CI007.S3
Description:
The series documents the work of the students of Mies van der Rohe's architectural design class at the Armour Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois.The material in this series was produced between 1939 and 1940. The series contains drawings related or produced by Mies' students during the class he taught. The drawings are predominantly by George Danforth during the first and second year Mies taught this class and also include copies of Mies' sketches for some of his past projects, as well as photographs of the graduate students of 1940 at the Armour Institure of Technology, including George Danforth. The series also includes photographs by Pius E. Pahl of Mies van der Rohe during a seminar at the Bauhaus in Germany, in 1931.

Series
Weaver software
AP174.S2
Description:
This series contains records relating to Weaver, a software script developed by the Emergent Design Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and written in Maya Embedded Language (MEL) for Alias|Wavefront Maya. Weaver algorithmically generates woven strands and applies these strands to a surface within a 3D design model. The resulting weaves “can be complex, and depend on both the description of the weaver pattern and the topology of any user-defined surface or scaffolding in Maya on which Weaver is applied.”[1] The records in this series date from approximately 2001-2004 and include the script in Maya Executable Language (MEL) and standalone executable formats, annotated source code, tutorials, and file outputs such as images and Maya 3D models. Sources: [1] Testa, Peter and Devyn Weiser. “Material Agency,” in Network Practices: New Strategies in Architecture and Design. New York: Princeton Architectural Press (2007): 128.
