Description
Summary:This paper briefly examines the history and the operational underpinnings of forms of volumetric reconstruction based on the capture of visual data, particularly photogrammetry. Photogrammetry is one of the chief techniques currently employed in the production of virtual replicas for heritage conservation. The computational realism resulting from this process induces us to believe that it is possible to recover the totality of an object from its media traces. We mean to challenge this technological promise by referring to artistic projects that explore the idiosyncrasies of photogrammetric models.
