The Digital Liberal Art’s first Behind the Scenes Lunch will feature our new Postdoc, Kristy Golubiewski-Davis, as she demonstrates the 3D scanning tools and techniques she used in her doctoral research. This project is a case study using 3D scans of Late Bronze Age swords (~1200-800BC) to recreate community networks of knowledge. The aim of the work is to link the decisions of specialized craft workers to morphological data. Those data were in turn used to represent links in a social network. Come learn about 3D scanning, statistics, and network analysis. The talk will include a brief demonstration of the David Scanner.
Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP at go/DLArsvp.
