Abstract(s)
O presente estudo aborda o desafio contemporâneo da arte digital na preservação da autenticidade cultural, procurando conciliar a inovação tecnológica com a continuidade histórica. Defende-se que a virtualização, compreendida como um deslocamento identitário para potenciais expressivos, constitui um fenómeno cultural contínuo, presente muito antes da era digital. Utilizando as Tapeçarias de Portalegre como caso paradigmático, este trabalho identifica cinco dimensões históricas de transcodificação; dimensional, material, técnica, temporal e interpretativa, que antecipam métodos da arte digital contemporânea.
Apresenta-se o conceito de arte figital, que estabelece uma gramática híbrida temporal, combinando os ritmos dos ambientes online e offline. Neste contexto, o framework "UrdiSynth42" propõe uma arquitetura hierárquica de quatro camadas, Perceção, Cognição, Expressão e Coordenação; que operacionaliza a virtualização histórica através de visão por computador, machine learning e síntese generativa. A utilização estratégica de tecnologias como Docker assegura a preservação digital e cultural.
O estudo confirma que a virtualização histórica não representa uma rutura tecnológica, mas sim uma evolução, oferecendo uma base robusta para futuras práticas artísticas que visem respeitar as tradições culturais, ao mesmo tempo que exploram novas possibilidades tecnológicas.
This study examines the contemporary challenge of digital art in preserving cultural authenticity while balancing technological innovation with historical continuity. It posits that virtualization, understood as shifts in identity towards expressive potentials, is a longstanding cultural phenomenon that predates the digital era. By employing the Portalegre Tapestries as a paradigmatic case, this research identifies five historical dimensions of transcoding, dimensional, material, technical, temporal, and interpretative; that foreshadow methodologies in contemporary digital art. The concept of phygital art is introduced, establishing a hybrid temporal grammar that merges the rhythms of online and offline environments. Within this framework, the "UrdiSynth42" model proposes a hierarchical four-layer architecture (Perception, Cognition, Expression, Coordination), which operationalizes historical virtualization through computer vision, machine learning, and generative synthesis. The strategic application of technologies such as Docker ensures both digital and cultural preservation. This study concludes that historical virtualization does not signify a technological rupture but rather a natural evolution, offering a robust foundation for future artistic practices that honor cultural traditions while exploring new technological possibilities.
