Brock U students have been doing a wonderful job modeling this 1732 Livorno food monument for the DECIMA Digital Soundscapes project! The model is based on festival sources and drawing by Marcus Tuscher, and is geolocated to DECIMA's 3D arcGIS layer using a very cool ArcGIS SDK for UE5. #earlymodern
