- Summary
-
The project will apply advanced 3D visualisation technologies to study the practice of ancient masked theatre. It will make 3D scans of Greek and Roman mask miniatures relating both to comedy and tragedy, and reproduce them at life-size by rapid prototyping. The project will use motion capture to record experimentation with these masks by practitioners of Asiatic and European traditions, and will situate the results in 3D models of ancient theatre spaces.
