Original title: No ACAIACA-Verso. Digitalização Geométrica, Cibercultura, Patrimônio e Musealização
Research in PORTUGUÊS
This work first presents the Acaiaca building, recognizing its iconicity in the city of Belo Horizonte, and discussing aspects of patrimonialization. The building has two sculptures of indigenous faces on its facade, which contribute to the symbolic establishment in the city. Taking advantage of this characteristic of this element of cultural heritage, the research explores, from the photogrammetric digitization of the indigenous face, derivations or cultural products such as resources in mixed realities (augmented and virtual), three-dimensional printing and metal casting, graphic productions. The objective is to show ways for the penetration of representations of our culture in the increasingly digital daily life, illuminating processes that strengthens relationships between the physical world and cyberspace. Thus, the object contributes to museum cyberculture by providing resources for the digital musealization of cultural goods.
