- Anatomy primitivesPublication . Azevedo, Hugo de; Araújo, AntónioWe propose an installation that investigates the notion of the anatomical canon and its conceptual and practical role in the artistic modeling of human anatomy. This installation guides the visitor through the synthesis of a digital canon built from standard 3D primitives. Through a model that can be interactively constructed or deconstructed step-by-step, using simple controls, the visitoris invited to study, and draw, the human surface anatomy and its main features as interpreted through the natural tools of digital modeling.
- Canon and process in the 3D modeling of human anatomyPublication . Azevedo, Hugo de; Araújo, AntónioThe authors argue that the concept of the anatomical canon is not just an arbitrary standard of anatomical beauty but an indispensable mnemonic tool for the artist. The authors further argue that the canon is most relevant when adapted to a specific artistic process and tools, and in particular must be updated to the requirements of the digital tools of 3D modeling. A proposal of such a canon is discussed, as well as the process of its synthesis from standard 3D primitives and its artistic applications.
- Towards a canon for digital human anatomy 3D modelingPublication . Azevedo, Hugo de; Araújo, AntónioWe argue that the notion of an anatomical canon is still useful in the current artistic environment and it must be updated to deal with new digital requirements and possibilities. We propose a canon with a view towards accurate digital human anatomy 3D modeling.
