About us — Excerpt from the Europeana pro blog “Discover the potential of 3D and heritage acoustics” :
“The Ricercar team, consisting of musicology researchers from CESR (Center for Renaissance Studies) in Tours, France conducted multiple projects from 2013 to 2020, fusing different elements of Renaissance studies. Perhaps the most impressive are seen in their 4D Immersive Reconstructions of Sainte-Chapelle in Dijon and Collegiate Saint Martin in Tours. The end results, stunning virtual reconstructions of the cities, the spaces, costumes, individuals, and of course, the sound showcase the depth of multidisciplinary work that goes into VR projects and how audio impacts or is impacted by every discovery from the material of the clothing in the past to the density of the stone and more. You can watch a documentary on the project and experience the Dijon and Tours virtual instances.”
