Texture to screen and back again: Exploring the manuscript as material landscape (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Aure Calvet, X., & De Filippo, A. (2021, October). Texture to screen and back again: Exploring the manuscript as material landscape. Presented at Unbound: Exploring Accessibility in Book Exhibitions

The textures and materialities of the pages of a manuscript are often concealed by conventional modes of display, which tend to present a manuscript as a static two-dimensional surface. Yet, if we can reveal the page of a manuscript as a physical env... Read More about Texture to screen and back again: Exploring the manuscript as material landscape.

Recreating the relief of the temple of the Jaguars: Exploring digital and analogue 2.5D printing of Mesoamerican imagery (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Vazquez, A. T., Aure, X., Klein, S., & Parraman, C. (2021). Recreating the relief of the temple of the Jaguars: Exploring digital and analogue 2.5D printing of Mesoamerican imagery. In Printing for Fabrication Online 2021 Final Program and Proceedings (41-46). https://doi.org/10.2352/issn.2169-4451.2021.37.41

Digital and analogue printing methods are studied for reconstructing a Mayan decorative relief from the ancient temple of the Jaguars. Height maps, image files encoding height information as intensity values, were produced in commercial image editing...

An affordable automated 3D surface scanner: the case of Canaletto’s ‘The Grand Canal, Ascension Day’ (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Aure Calvet, X. (2021, February). An affordable automated 3D surface scanner: the case of Canaletto’s ‘The Grand Canal, Ascension Day’. Paper presented at Digital Past

We present an affordable and automated 3D scanner to record the structure and colour of planar surfaces of artworks. The system is based on the combination of photogrammetric and Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) data and generates high-resolu...
