Open-source parametric brick wall “hacks the digital” in Iran - Archpaper.com
Open-source parametric brick wall “hacks the digital” in Iran - Archpaper.com
Archpaper:
Sstudiomm, an Iranian architecture office founded by Hossein Naghavi, has developed a digital brick laying technique and an open-source DIY kit for architects interested in the system. The project, titled Negative Precision, is the outcome of Naghavi’s independent research into parametrically derived brick laying techniques. Using Kohler and Gramazio’s 2006 robotically programmed wall as a departure point, sstudiomm sought out alternative methods to reproduce the same effect with a limited budget, “in order to make the luxurious reachable for a greater group.”

Wall STC and Fire Resistance Ratings
The online version of the Gypsum Association’s Fire Resistance Design Manual 20th Edition 2012 is here:
The Gypsum Association’s Fire Resistance Design Manual has both proprietary and generic wall systems with fire and STC ratings. Here are some generic STC ratings of walls we always use that should help you during the design phase, the GA-WP number is the Gypsum Association number:
· 1 layer 5/8” Gypsum Board each side 3-5/8” metal studs without insulation, GA-WP-1350, 1Hr, STC 35-39
· 1 layer 5/8” Gypsum Board each side 3-5/8” metal studs with insulation, GA-WP-1072, 1Hr, STC 45-49
· 1 layer 5/8” Gypsum Board one side, 2 layers gypsum board opposite side 3-5/8” metal studs without insulation, GA-WP-1052, 1Hr, STC 44
· 1 layer 5/8” Gypsum Board one side, 2 layers gypsum board opposite side 3-5/8” metal studs with insulation, GA-WP-1052, 1Hr, STC 50-54
· 2 layers 5/8” Gypsum Board each side 3-5/8” metal studs without insulation, GA-WP-1616, 2Hr, STC 45-49
· 2 layers 5/8” Gypsum Board each side 3-5/8” metal studs with insulation, GA-WP-1522, 2Hr, STC 55-59
* The Gypsum Association’s Fire Resistance Design Manual does not have any generic wall systems with resilient furring channels, so if you need a higher STC rating you will need to go to a manufacturer’s tested system.

Design Considerations for Effective Distance Learning | University Business Magazine
Found these references doing research for a classroom with a distance learning component.
The University of Maryland Classroom Design Manual
Design Considerations for Effective Distance Learning | University Business Magazine
Generally speaking, if the lecturer is the focus of the AV capture (and not the audience), harder surfaces where the lecturer is standing and acoustically-absorbent surfaces elsewhere are the idea. You want to allow the speaker's voice to carry and you want to deaden the rustling, coughing, shuffling, etc. in the audience. Extra lighting, and neutral colors behind the speaker help with the picture.
Naturally, it gets more complicated when you get into fully-interactive, remote learning.
