rust and lasers: the 3d preservation of a national treasure by dr. lori walters
DESCRIPTION
Designed by noted 20th Century American architect Philip Johnson, the New York State Pavilion in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, Queens, NY was recently listed as a “National Treasure” by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. With the pavilion’s fate undecided, a canning team from the University of Central Florida, with support from non-profit CyArk, set out to digitally preserve the iconic structures. Dr. Lori Walters and Ross Davison will showcase the challenges surrounding the capture of the pavilion’s height, unique configuration and deterioration.TRANSCRIPT
