title	From Digital Heritage Documentation to 3D Virtual Reconstruction and Recreation for Heritage Promotion and Reinterpretation: The Case of the iHeritage Project
source	C+++: Computation, Culture, and Context – Proceedings of the 11th International Conference of the Arab Society for Computation in Architecture, Art and Design (ASCAAD), University of Petra, Amman, Jordan [Hybrid Conference] 7-9 November 2023, pp. 7-23.
summary	In the last two decades, the digital age Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) development and concerns combined with rapid technology have permitted the dissemination of different digital applications (including digital documentation, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), digital gaming, and holograms etc.) oriented toward past, present and future communication using digital three-dimensional audio-visual content. Today, we must acknowledge that 3D virtual 3D reconstruction and recreation has become an established way to build, understand, reinterpret, and promote Cultural Heritage (CH). The virtual 3D reconstruction world and multimedia industry are often considered potential marketing channels for World Heritage Sites (WHS) and heritage tourism. 3D digital/virtual reconstruction merges and embodies subjectivity in one process, playing an attractive role in heritage tourism destinations and creating image experiences, providing the first enjoyable interpretation and information for most audiences. Based on the EU-funded iHERITAGE project ICT Mediterranean platform for the UNESCO CH, this paper attempts to examine some insights into constructing the optimistic image of heritage promotion and tourism in the context of CH as it flows through both physical and virtual spaces to give a glimpse of the future of virtual reconstruction. It illustrates the development of the concepts and practice, challenges and opportunities, advantages and disadvantages, and the negative and the positive sides of the related issues of only 3D digital reconstructions, and some issues concerning the ethics based on the International Chartres and Conventions mainly in the field of scientific visualisation, such as the London Charter (2009) and Seville Principles (2011). Finally, as a practical dimension, it presents some representative examples of 3D digital/virtual reconstruction of characteristic monuments of the WHS of Nabataean Petra in Jordan for the first time.

title	A Dimensão Sônica do Mundo [The sonic dimension of the world]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 253-256
summary	The works Acusma and Microfônico by the group Chelpa Ferro not only represent an inflexion point in the group's trajectory but also make reference and allow an interpretation which places Chelpa Ferro amongst several other artists who experimented with sound-noise throughout the 20th century. Since the first modernists sound was object of artistic experiments, always informed by technological innovations. Thus the group inserts itself in such context and augments it, appropriating theirselves of everyday objects to produce their sound or by creating their own specially built apparatuses to amplify inexistent sounds, as in the works here discussed.

title	The Other Digital - What is the Glitch in Architecture?
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2017.551
source	P. Janssen, P. Loh, A. Raonic, M. A. Schnabel (eds.), Protocols, Flows, and Glitches - Proceedings of the 22nd CAADRIA Conference, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Suzhou, China, 5-8 April 2017, pp. 551-559
summary	This paper will discuss and investigate the issues with the concept of 'glitch' in architecture. There are currently two definitions that sit in a symbiotic relationship with each other; Moradi's (2004) and Menkman's (2011). This paper will explore the implications of these two approaches, while investigating the possibility of a third, unique definition (the encoded transform), and what effect they have on the possibility for a 'glitch architecture'. The paper will then focus on the glitches' capacity to be disruptive within the design process. In the context of architecture, it has been previously argued that the inclusion of glitches within a design process can easily create a process that does not 'converge' to a desired design outcome, but instead shifts haphazardly within a set of family resemblances (Austin & Perin 2015). Further to this, it will be revealed that this 'divergent' quality of glitches is due to the encoded nature of architectural production.

title	Cultura digital, cultura aumentada "conocimiento aumentado" [Digital Culture, Augmented Culture. Augmented knowledge?]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 415-418
summary	This study investigates the potential of multimedia learning materials to improve the possibilities of knowledge construction processes about computer graphics technology. The primary hypothesis was that information in multimedia format, could contribute to overcome epistemological obstacles students encounter, more effectively than printed literature, and improve the quality of their learning. We designed multimedia learning materials, using appropriate pedagogy and instructional strategies. We gave them to the students and used them for teaching. The results suggest that the hypothesis could be corroborated, thus indicators of knowledge level and quality of the students, showed a significant upswing.

source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 571-574
summary	This paper approaches the dilemma of the technical image as it relates to an understanding of the constructed subject. Proceeding from a condition identified in film and popular culture, the authors construct an investigative, graduate level workshop around a collaborative interface and archive. The project was premised upon the notion that a new ground, based in visualization processes and incorporating existing technologies, must be practically and critically explored to make any sense at all of the subjectivity already coeval with these technologies.

title	Mixed Reality Games - Augmented Cultural Heritage
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 304-307
summary	This paper aims at enhancing Cultural Heritage in several ways. Using Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality technologies, we seek to highlight the advantages of understanding and applying hyper worlds in cultural, sociological, psychological and educational fields. For this purpose, we suggest the inclusion of social serious games as the perfect link to a more productive and pleasant experience for users and a more accurate analysis of simulated cultural environments for researchers.

title	A representação das cidades na era da cultura digital: ampliação, consumo e produção das cidades no ciberespaço [The representation of cities in the era of digital culture: expansion, consumption and production of cities in cyberspace ]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 320-323
summary	This article presents a study on the representation of cities in the era of digital culture and aims to show how the phenomenon of self-production is present in the websites studied. At the end, we conclude that cities (through city marketing), local government (through advertising and through the creation of an identity) and citizens (through selfbranding), they create a rhetorical itself and constitute itself as brands. Therefore, we conclude that cybercities has been more an extended space of consumption and production of cities, municipalities and citizens.

title	Sigradi 2011: Augmented Culture
source	Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics Graphics / ISBN 13: 978-987-657-679-6] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, 579 p.
summary	“Augmented Culture” talks about a combination of interdependent social and technological meanings in a complex, multiple, interactive and interconnected context. It acknowledges that a new social and cultural paradigm is being developed as the old barriers of time, space and language are ruptured and transcended. In our knowledge-based civilization, we inhabit interconnected societies where new relational forms are configured. Additionally, cultural expressions have been qualitatively augmented starting from their integration with information and communication technologies, which have dramatically enhanced not only their creative and reflective processes, but also the realization and construction of cultural objects. In this sense, an “Augmented Culture” compels us to investigate the wide and complex spectrum of the variables that express the interdisciplinary, collective and participative constructions of our present age, so strongly related to visual culture, information culture and interface culture. Thus, we consider it necessary to concentrate, to expand, to spread and to share exploratory, descriptive or explanatory experiences and productions of such phenomena. The attempt is to define a multidimensional theoretical framework that while recognizing today’s state-of-the-art and tendencies, it provides us with a critical viewpoint.

title	Are you Experienced? [Are you Experienced?]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 249-252
summary	This article presents results of a research on spatialities linked to the contemporary concept of experience. The work outlines the meanings that this term has acquired in the Culture of Experience, having two meanings as historical perspective: that of Walter Benjamin on Modernity and that of the 1960s and 70s countercultural artistic actions. Finally, it analyses thirty five spatialities based on concepts, techniques, and effects, and proposes a critical approach to the strategic experiential modules formulated in recent years to the field of experiential marketing.

title	Digital tea house: Japanese tea ceremony as a pretext for exploring parametric design and digital fabrication in architectural education
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2011.071
source	Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / The University of Newcastle, Australia 27-29 April 2011, pp. 71-80
summary	This paper reviews the Digital Tea House, a joint workshop in August of 2010 held at the University of Tokyo, Department of Architecture, together with Columbia University GSAPP. Three pavilions for hosting ceremony were designed and built in less than one month, in an attempt to bridge technology and culture not only through design but also fabrication. Issues addressed in the process included applications of computational design, interpretations of tradition and culture in spatial or activity oriented expressions, structural stability, to practical solutions for quick physical materialization. Three teams comprised of 6 to 8 students, each a blend of different nationalities, ultimately produced 3 full-scale tea houses with the same software, primary material, budget, and principal fabrication method.

title	Decoding Culture Parametrically: Digital Tea House Case Studies
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 9 - no. 4, 325-338
summary	This paper reviews the Digital Tea House, a workshop held at the University of Tokyo with the aim to build three pavilions for hosting tea ceremony.As first attempts on cultivating formal innovations resulting from digital design process applied to construction of tea houses, the works convey that parametric design can be a mechanism through which architects are able to produce new images of a tea house and renew its conceptual meanings, and that it can be a tool to retain architecture convergent with cultural values.The authors analyze issues addressed in the workshop that range from applications of computational design, interpretations of tradition, structural stability, to solutions for quick physical materialization within limited time and budget.This paper clarifies the following: First, that parametric processes are not contradictory to traditional cultural principles; and second, how traditional elements of the tea house were decoded and formally reinterpreted through parametric designs.

summary	Renowned Architecture schools are acting globally by means of international workshops. In these, new methodo- logies of digital parametric representations are applied in urban interventions. We bring forward an inflatable solution for sheltering a sports event, held under a viaduct. In this case, parametric technology was employed in the design, with the use of digital fabrication. Several other interventions were proposed for the same space chosen for the action of a multidisciplinary group of professors. Differently from government actions that usually focus on the removal of social problems this workshop sought a solution through technology, new materials and parametric design.

title	Heavy Design
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 9 - no. 3, 251-258
summary	Digital tools in architecture have a powerful capability that we have only begun to explore; the questions to ask of them are perhaps not what they can do but what should we use them for? To date, much of the work done in the area of computational design has been used as elaborate patterning - some have called it ‘ornament’. The significance of this ornament is not only pleasure but in its use of digital patterns to represent our current complex and digital age.This representation in itself is not problematic; however, what is problematic is the lack of other meaningful uses of the digital form-generating tools and their distance from a culture of making. The main failing of our use of digital design (algorithmic or not) in architecture to this point is its inability to translate smoothly from the digital world to the physical world. The main reasons for this difficulty in translation are gravity and inherent material properties. Working with gravity and its physical implications is generally considered the role of the structural engineer; as such, engineers have generally created digital tools in this area.The engineer's methodology analyses a structure based on complex structural analysis programming but in order to do this, a detailed description of the structure must already exist. This is not useful in preliminary stages of design. However, the generation of architecture within an environment, which already includes structural principles, may bring us one step closer to this transition of virtual to physical by including gravity in architectural generation while not diminishing the creative form-generating process. An approach has been proposed which responds with a concept of ‘heavy design’. This type of approach incorporates logics from other disciplines, primarily structural engineering, to inform design. The design process incorporates the structural behavior of a system into the architectural model. Engineering offers a mathematical interpretation of the physical world and this is inherently suited to algorithmic design because it is already in equation form. It can thus be programmed into the architectural form generational software. The variables used in the equations become the variables within the architectural design and this inherently brings the natural physical laws to the architecture through a numerical, algorithmic method. The design produced is not a singular answer but rather a responsive vocabulary of a structural system, which is then employed in design in differing conditions. The architecture produced is both function and ornament, having cultural interpretation but carrying out many engineering tasks: a true parametric architecture.

title	Nuevos correlatos entre línea, espacio y tiempo: anotaciones sobre el arte indisciplinado de Abel Monasterolo [New correlates between line, space, and time: annotations on the Abel Monesterolo’s unruly art ]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 298-301
summary	Ephemeral art, post-autonomus, unruly, out of the frame or undefined, are the categories which characterize the visual arts today. In that context, we address as case study the work of the Argentinian visual artist Abel Monasterolo. Along with the analysis of their work, we propose an urban intervention in "Ciudad Universitaria", within the framework of SIGRADI 2011. It consists to perform a frieze from the point, the line and the plane. It proposes a visual narrative of "the big bang of artistic creation". This narrative incorporates experiences of augmented culture, like a palimpsest, paradigmatic works of design history. It also includes a scanned self-portrait of the artist. The work of art has a performative character and offers the spectator to participate in strategic moments of the artistic discourse.

summary	With the background of the reflections of the philosopher Vilém Flusser about games on contemporary culture, and the mathematical theory of Constructionism of the educator Seymour Papert, the subject of this work, a doctoral research in progress, relates to the use of a new programming language in the development of design processes in architecture. Intends to examine and explore the similarity of this language with the definition of "open game" by Flusser, whose use seems to favor so-called participatory methods and collaborative work, in which the role of the individual project gives rise to an activity shared by several actors.

summary	The aim of this paper is to understand the outcomes of parametric methods in beginning design projects and their impact on rethinking digital technology in current design education. In order to realize comprehensive results, in this paper i) conceptual and formative projects are presented to describe specifications of a parametric design at OSU School of Architecture; ii) for OSU SOA, we plot pedagogical objectives and evaluate how we have interpreted and applied novel digital technology into the design process; and iii) Cultivate parametric design as systemic and organizational design. Along with unit-based, component design, expand the use of digital tools to become the discipline and domain of the creative culture. How digital tools are integrated into early design education through a collaborative studio project will be the focus of the study. Through the experimental exercises, we can begin to explore how the digital process can be integrated at a fundamental level.

title	Affordable, performative and responsive: Designing affordable responsive architectural prototypes through physical and digital modelling
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2011.113
source	Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / The University of Newcastle, Australia 27-29 April 2011, pp. 113-122
summary	The significance of this research lies in the investigation of agglomerating issues of affordability in responsive architecture to achieve long term performative and cost-saving benefits. Conventionally, performance analysis of responsive design is evaluated using simulation of digital model. The inaccuracy of most building performance simulation leads to a huge prediction error in the actual building performance, which yields miscalculation in the building operational cost. This paper proposes a novel method for delivering a cost benefit analysis for responsive design. Two different strategies are explored in parallel. Firstly, hands-on approach through fabrication of physical models which directly associated to digital models, whereby the fabrication and operational costs of the physical prototypes are measured and monitored. Secondly, qualitative approach through cost benefit analysis of real world building projects which employ responsive architectural components.

summary	This article investigates the notion of an augmented architectural design culture elapsed of the digital revolution. Based on analytical categories proposed by the philosopher VilémFlusser it compares two systems of creative production (the tool-architect and the robot-architect), establishing new perspectives on the architectural design supported by computers. Thereafter, it identifies in the digital design agenda the overvaluation of the generative techniques over the psycho-physiological capacity of man. Lastly, the article discusses Flusser's theories to present the risks and limitations of a design practice determined by the digital techniques.

source	Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / The University of Newcastle, Australia 27-29 April 2011, pp. 261-270
summary	In the present research, we have developed a system by which to simulate three-dimensional architecture and urban landscapes in any outdoor space. As the basic AR environment, we used Vizard running on a laptop PC, where the urban model component, location tracking component, and image display component work together using original Python scripts. For the urban model component, digital maps data were converted. For the location tracking component, portable DGPS and a high-precision gyroscope were introduced in order to minimize the locational error. For the image display component, optical see-through HMD was used. Stereovision was also realized with the functions of GPU on the PC. A walking experiment was performed to test the proposed system on a redevelopment plan for our university campus.
