The Back Bay was a planned district, the result of a massive 19th c. landfill operation of over 800 acres. It was also part of a comprehensive urban design and coordinated set of infrastructures: sewers, streets, water supply, flood control, planting, lighting, lot layouts, and sculpture. As it has evolved, the Back Bay has continued to play important roles in the design of the city of Boston - roles that have continually evolved and whose expression has been diverse, layered, complex, and exciting. This portion of the project chronicles that change.

This project explores how new recording technologies such as immersive video, spatial audio, and motion capture can be used to document, preserve, and transmit embodied cultural practices of aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory regions of Australia.

Working closely with the community, the project team will capture communities’ ceremonial dances and music to help archive and preserve their cultural heritage.

Historical Architecture of Minnesota is the result of a collaboration between the Minnesota Historical Society and IATH, the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities located at the University of Virginia. The project produced a series of digital models of several of Minnesota's historically significant buildings. The initial phase of the project resulted in a high quality 3D model of the Washburn A Mill and the surrounding Mill City area of Minneapolis in 1885.

Homer's Trojan Theater argues for the centrality of vision in Homeric poetics and its importance both for the poet in constructing, and for his audience in comprehending, the course of his narrative. The Iliad's battle scenes, which take up a third of the poem, pose an exceptional challenge to a narrator. Of the 360 named characters, 232 are warriors killed or wounded, yet the poet is remarkable in his ability to keep his characters on the battlefield straight (the instances of Homer's nodding are strikingly rare).

Inhabiting Byzantine Athens is an archaeological project that challenges traditional approaches to Byzantine urbanism and to Byzantine Athens in particular. Focusing on the area of the Athenian Agora, the project will trace architectural and functional changes in the city from the 4th c. to the 15th c. AD, so as to better understand the topography, spatial layout and living conditions of Byzantine and Frankish Athens.
