Virtual Rome - a digital model of the ancient city


Matthew Nicholls (Oxford; University of Reading) will discuss his work
on making a large scale digital model of ancient Rome in the
architectural modelling software SketchUp. The talk will cover the
methodology and some of the technical processes of creating the model
(including questions such as source material, decision-making about what
to show and what not to show), and the uses of this work including in
teaching both Roman architecture and digital modelling to undergraduate
students.

Chaired by Valeria Vitale (British Library) as part of the Institute of
Classical Studies 3D Summer School.

Lecture will be streamed and later archived on the Sunoikisis Digital
Classics YouTube channel at: (https://youtu.be/b9M89RnZ6hs)
