COURSE OBJECTIVES

Painting is the common element of constructions carried out by all civilizations since ancient times and has been used extensively in practically all the works created by man. From prehistory, with the paintings inside the caves, through the ancient civilizations where paintings and hieroglyphic engravings are still preserved in the Egyptian pyramids, the decorations of the Mayan and Aztec temples…, to the modern buildings of our days, have been used infinity of materials to try to obtain lasting colors.

In the same way that construction systems have changed, painting has also changed to adapt to these new needs, so that the function of painting has gone from being a purely decorative element to being a protective element, which implies that its quality and correct application also conditions the general quality of the work where it is applied, having a great impact on the appropriate choice of this very important preserving element.

A protection system is not better because it is more expensive, but must be appropriate to the needs of the work and therefore we must seek the best value for money for a specific function, since each painting is developed for a specific mission and although not incompatible in most cases, we will not always achieve the desired results if the choice is inadequate.

In this course we will establish the guidelines for prescribing a repair and rehabilitation treatment using paints, trying to cover the most frequent pathologies, which without being exhaustive, will allow us to determine with enough certainty the ideal treatment to apply.

CONCEPT

With the reforms introduced in the EHEA and the reformulation of the degrees, university training has had to be refocused on generalist training, rather than on techniques of professional application, which are rapidly evolving and which, due to their specificity, had no place in this system.

For this reason, the teaching of specific professional techniques – photogrammetry, 3d design, photography – takes place inside and outside the university structure, but it is in other smaller institutions where the bulk of society can often be trained in artistic and professional disciplines with subsequent job opportunities. The professional training of middle and upper levels in specific techniques forgets, due to the limited conception of their teaching, the deep foundations that the University is for professional development.

Photography, representation, drawing and research can be apprehended in various teaching contexts and will be used in all professional fields, but only the University and the teaching quality based on the search for excellence, can consider the technique with the transcendence that this knowledge of applied skills deserves.

The objective of this course is to generate a teaching space in which to learn advanced techniques of documentary photography and representation can be implemented from the most varied fields.

PROPOSITION

The specific techniques of photographic documentation, estate planning and architectural photography generally require specific sections of higher education or university training, but due to their extent they include many other subjects and require specific preparation. If someone wants to learn photography, they will not want to study a whole degree in Fine Arts, since it is only a small part of this generalist curriculum that interests them, those interested will seek to learn these specific techniques.

TEACHING SENSE

The teaching objective of this intensive seminar will be to offer professional training in documentary and photogrammetric techniques related to architecture and heritage (in all its variants, although of direct application in architectural, urban, artistic and natural fields, easily documentable heritage entities) from the planning of photographic and photogrammetric reportage work to its editing, archiving and dissemination. The application of these techniques is profoundly broad, including graphic, pictorial, documentary and planning techniques for reporting, with a broad and holistic sense of technical and professional activity, and giving an understanding of the significance of documentation, broadening the techniques of university education.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES

Scanning is a complex process of converting paper documents into a digital virtual document format, using optical capture procedures and digital back-up of that capture. After capture, a complex process opens up, from index-linked inclusion to electronic management classification. Given the large number of documents that have to be made public for research consultation, there is a growing demand for professionals capable of directing or participating in projects to digitize scientific heritage documents and/or documents from private and public companies.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES

Since the modern classification of encyclopaedic knowledge, theoretical and practical knowledge have been separated, even institutionally at a formative level. Even today, when the barriers between the categories of knowledge are continuously put to the test since the advent of digital photography as a professional medium in the most different fields, the teaching of specific techniques of photography and documentalism are more necessary than ever. A huge number of people are interested in photography, for its application and personal and professional use. But when a scientific application involving the heritage of photography is needed, artistic techniques are not enough. To this end, the present course focuses on photographic parameterisation for scientific purposes, made possible by the capture of current sensors and the information contained in digital images of the RAW type, offering training that allows descriptive, aseptic or objective professional reportage to be carried out for reports, portfolios and documentaries applied to heritage, from the drafting of a documentary study, lectures or communications and even judicial experts.
