COMMUNITY STANDARDS FOR 3D DATA PRESERVATION (CS3DP), WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, ST. LOUIS, MO, 2018,
In February 2018, I presented an AR Poster entitled “For Posterity and Pedagogy: Using 3D Models to Preserve Exhibitions" for the Community Standards for 3D Preservation (CS3DP) Forum 1. For more details about the event, see the summary report.
The poster used a QR code to open a 3D model I made of an exhibition space at the Taiwan National Museum of Fine Arts where I had curated a show on digital art. Using the Kubity App, the model was layered into real space and could be resized and navigated for users to get a sense of what the art exhibition looked like when it was installed.
The model is part of my ongoing research investigating how virtual spaces have become extensions of the self and cultural repositories/archives, not unlike museums, which are carefully curated, negotiated, and representative spaces. Additionally, methods such as 3D, 360 capture, and photogrammetry are allowing us to preserve spatial context for exhibitions, heritage environments, and performances, which provides a richer set of information for future study by students and scholars.
My co-curator and I were awarded first prize in the poster competition for the digital art exhibition "Hot Body. Cool Tech: Performative and Choreographed Bodies in New Media." Using a small projector, the digital poster was displayed so that viewers could read and watch video content related to the exhibition. For more about the exhibition, see my Exhibitions page.
