virtual spaces and historical perspectives

A 15 minute interview with Stephen Murray, Professor of Art History & Archeology at Columbia University. Professor Murray has developed an online database that presents his unique research — chronicling the documentation of over 100 Romanesque structures through comprehensive digital photography and three-dimensional QuickTime Virtual Reality panoramas.

This project, developed with teams of student helpers in the framework of a summer field school, brings the student to the monument with new questions, new techniques and new enthusiasm. Conversely, it brings the monument to the student not as a single isolated edifice, but as part of much larger enterprise that can be understood as the production of space.
