High-resolution recording: Ashurnasirpal II and Tutankhamun
Factum Foundation
Factum Foundation is a registered Foundation, established in 2009 and
based in Spain, dedicated to the development and use of non-contact
high-resolution digital recording as part of a coherent approach to the
preservation, understanding and public exhibition of objects from our
cultural heritage.
Advances in digital technology are dramatically and radically
changing our understanding and appreciation of our shared cultural
heritage. Science and technology are assisting art by providing
forensically accurate information to both specialists and an interested
public.
The foundation is dedicated to demonstrating that the way we
understand the original object is part of a dynamic process and not a
fixed state of being. When the dynamic nature of originality is
successfully presented, works of art come alive - their complex
biographies inform the present and influence the future. When viewed in
this way they cease to be discrete objects to be viewed in museums and
become complex subjects that can reveal their past (and also reveal how
they have been valued and cared for by previous generations in diverse
locations). Read more
