Digital Humanities 299: Architectural Reconstructions on Broadway

Instructor: Anthony Caldwell

The historic theaters in Downtown Los Angeles are part of a rich cultural legacy that provides insight into the architectural practices of the early 20th century. This project investigates how these monuments were constructed, decorated, and used through in-depth archival research, photogrammetric modeling, and a variety of interactive visualizations including virtual and augmented reality platforms.
Students will identify a topic of interest and work in groups to produce an experience and documentation detailing their research, procedures, and process.
