Two members of the academic staff of the Amsterdam School for Heritage and Memory Studies (ASHMS), Prof. Bram Kempers and Dr Patricia Lulof, started fellowships for six months at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NIAS) in Wassenaar on the 1st of February, 2015.
Together with their colleagues Prof. Lex Bosman of the Faculty of Humanities, Prof. Bernard Fischer of Indiana University, and Dr Carlo Resgino of the Seconda Università degli Studi di Napoli, Kempers and Lulof will explore the usage of visual digital research tools to clarify patterns in the transformations in buildings, from early antiquity until the modern era, in the interdisciplinary theme group ‘Biographies of Buildings: Virtual Futures for Our Cultural Past’. The focus will be on monuments in Rome and its satellite cities, such as Cumae and Satricum.
