This Wednesday 2nd July is 3ds London- England is out the World Cup (boo) so no clashes (yay), the sun
will be shining and Truckles has a great courtyard to drink in-
plus there’ll be all the usual 3ds Max camaraderie in the basement…
sounds wrong but you’ll love it.
This month Raffaele Schiavullo
is presenting his virtual reconstruction of the "Villa of Papyri in
Herculaneum” which has been, for 7 months, the main attraction at the
exhibition "La Villa
de los Papiros" at the Casa del Lector Museum in Madrid. I’m looking
forward to this, it’s a bit different and a topic Raffaele is both
knowledgeable and enthusiastic about.
Raffaele will focus on "Virtual Archaeology" for
cultural heritage, showing how he rebuilt an ancient ruin with archival
research as guide line and talk about the laser scanning of the original
statues from the Villa and making the 3D models
of the monument in 3ds Max. Raffaele started his career at the Cultural
and Virtual Reality Lab, University of California in Los Angeles
(UCLA). He has worked as an Art Director and 3D Artist for many
educational and cultural projects and was a Professor at
the University of Naples teaching Interactive Virtual Reality for
Architecture and Industrial Design for eight years.
Always looking for presentations don’t forget! If
it’s short just bring it along, if you’re feeling more confident get in
touch and arrange a date. Check www.3dslondon.co.uk, follow @3dslondon or email to get on the distribution list. I
recently discovered 3ds London has been on Facebook for four years- thanks Sol! So you can check that out too.
