Creating replicas of scultural heritage through 3D reconstruction and low cost 3D printer in Education

The process of making replicas of heritage has traditionally been developed by public agencies, corporations and museums and is not commonly used in schools. Currently there are technologies that allow creating cheap replicas. The new 3D reconstruction software, based on photographs and low cost 3D printers allow to make replicas at a cost much lower than traditional. This article describes the process of creating replicas of the sculpture Goslar Warrior of artist Henry Moore, located in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. To make this process, first, a digital model have been created using Autodesk Recap 360, Autodesk 123D Catch and Autodesk Meshmixer MarkerBot MakerWare applications. Physical replication, has been reproduced in polylactic acid (PLA) by MakerBot Replicator 2 3D printer. In addition, a cost analysis using, in one hand, the printer mentioned, and in the other hand, 3D printing services both online and local, is included. Finally, there has been a specific action with 141 students and 12 high school teachers, who filled a questionnary about the use of sculptural replicas in education.

“Animanazo”. Song and memories. Cultural expressions and movements in the reconstruction of the past inside a north Argentinian town

This article analyses the context of production and local situations of appropriation and resignification related to the folk song “Fire on Animaná” as well as the request and mobilization (“The animanazo”) provoked by this song in order to examine different mechanisms and foundations by which a population connect with an event from its community past, identifying with this and taking it in a specific way. In this article we combine discourse analysis of the song and of interviews to participants in this event with the reconstruction —through ethnographic observation— of how to use this song.

Flavian laws, the railway, the newspaper and Loring’s breads

It is abound the research on the formation, rise and failure of the financial and industrial network undertaken by the Loring-Heredia-Larios triangle, bourgeois families who introduced the Industrial Revolution in the south of Andalusia. On the contrary, there are almost nonexistent studies from the perspective of the mentality that sustained their business, social and ethical model in the algid decades of their action (1850-1860). In this paper we propose some hypotheses about the ideological structures of bourgeois group and point out some keys, clues and signs for a future reconstruction of this kind, which so far has not been incardinated that early and failed malaguenan industrial revolution in streams thinking of that time.

Entre la "flânerie" y el ostracismo: la resignificación subjetiva de la ciudad en Fabián Casas y Martín Gambarotta

Desde los estudios pioneros de Walter Benjamín dedicados a la imagen del flâneur en la poesía de Baudelaire, la experiencia del sujeto poético y su íntima reconstrucción afectiva de la ciudad constituyen un índice significativo para aproximarnos a la experiencia de la vida moderna. En este artículo, nos interesa revisar cuáles son las particularidades que distinguen esta experiencia en un corpus de poesía argentina reciente -los libros Punctum y Refrito, de Martín Gambarotta, y Horla City y otros, de Fabián Casas-, que durante las décadas de 1990 y 2000 tematiza, con insistencia y mediante opciones diversas, la relación sujeto-ciudad. En dichos textos, es posible releer una continuidad -relativamente canónicadel paseante por los márgenes periféricos de la modernidad -en el caso de Casas- y la reclusión voluntaria, como repliegue extremo ante la vivencia del deambular callejero, que se percibe como intimidante en Gambarotta.
