Using Super-High Resolution Panoramas (Gigapans) to Document and Study Rock Art Panels
Panoramic photography began in the middle of the nineteenth century. Images were ‘stitched’ in the darkroom. It wasn’t until the late twentieth century that Apple Computer Corporation provided a practical approach to digitally stitching images (QuickTime Virtual Reality, QTVR). This required very careful photography, and then describing the relations between images in an arcane script. The projection was limited to a cylinder. It was shortly ther…
L’utilisation de panoramas à très haute résolution (Gigapans) pour documenter et étudier les panneaux d’art rupestre
La photographie panoramique débuta au milieu du XIXe siècle. Les images furent « cousues » dans la chambre noire. Ce n’est pas avant la fin du XXe siècle que Apple Computer Corporation produisit une approche pratique pour monter numériquement les photos (QuickTime Virtual Reality, QTVR). Ceci nécessitait une photographie très soignée, puis de décrire malaisément les relations entre les images. La projection était limitée à un cylindre. C’est peu …
Pictographs at Hunters Shelter
The photo-documentation of Hunters Shelter, a small, obscure shelter high in the Guadalupe Mountains of New Mexico, led to a reexamination of the corpus of miniature, Late Archaic rock art known as the Red Linear style of the Lower Pecos River region of Texas, 400 km to the southeast. Pictographs at Hunters Shelter and White Oaks Spring and at other sites in the Guadalupe Mountains appear to have strong similarities to the Red Linear style. While…
Gender Reconciliation
In this article two authors, one male and one female, each actively engaged in transforming the ways that gender constrains human relationships, exchange their ideas on current themes in the women's and men's movements
Architectural Technology up to the Scientific Revolution
Hagia Sophia
With its vast scale, immense cost, extraordinary speed of erection, and stunning interior space, the creation of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul between 532-537 is unparalleled in premodern, Western architecture. As such, the achievement begs answers to three important questions: the nature of the theoretical and material resources available to the early designers to achieve this great building; the behaviour over the centuries of its much modified …

Light, Wind, and Structure
Sydney Opera House, with its vast cost overruns and its years of delay, is a glaring example of misbegotten notions of structural honesty. MIT's Kresge Auditorium was conceived for visual effect without regard for technological flaws that arose from the misapplied criteria of form-follows function and forced its closing for more than a year. And in the building of Boston's John Hancock Tower, structural imperatives, were literally thrown to the w…
Hagia Sophia
Structural Imperative and the Origin of New Form
Contemporary writing on architecture, following art history, tends to focus on formal analysis where visual ideas dominate the discussion of the origin and meaning of style. Technology is rarely touched upon; and structure, although generally understood as necessary, is hardly seen as a legitimate giver of form, even for large-scale building.' This modern point of view must be understood, at least partly, as a reaction to the ideas of Eugine Viol…
Structural Archaeology A New Methodology for the Study of Historical Architecture
Structural Archaeology A New Methodology for the Study of Historical Architecture
The nature of the design methods used to create the great-spanned temples and baths of the late Roman era and the light, soaring structures of the High Gothic cathedral at the end of the 12th century has been one of the more persistent puzzles of architectural history. But structural modeling of historical buildings – for which there is practically no primary documentation on construction, except for the extant structures – has added a new approa…

"In Response to "Another View of 'The Cathedral and the Bridge
We appreciate Professor Condit's thoughtful critique. No historian has done more to increase our understanding of American buildings. But in the critique he has raised many issues not pertinent to our paper and thereby so misinterprets some of its ideas that we believe it essential to restate our major themes before replying directly to those of his criticisms which do apply. Our goal was to draw a parallel between the Gothic cathedrals as the fi…
The Cathedral and the Bridge
When Montgomery Schuyler wrote in 1883 what was perhaps the first critical essay on a work of modern engineering as a work of art (the Brooklyn Bridge), he recognized the cultural similarity between the Gothic cathedrals of the 13th century and the long-span bridges of his own era.1 Just as the cathedrals symbolized the medieval world of stone, so did the bridges of the Industrial Revolution symbolize the new technological world of metal. Yet, wh…
Architecture and the Crisis of Modern Science
Experiments in Gothic Structure
This fascinating study of the structural elements of Gothic cathedrals is written by an engineer who has spent the last 15 years applying analytical techniques of structural mechanics to Gothic buildings

Stress Analysis of Historic Structures
The significant architecture of any era is expected to include its large public buildings: the temples and arenas of the classical period, the cathedrals of the Middle Ages, and the transportation terminals and exhibition halls of our own time. Nevertheless, the main lines of architectural development pass through other construction as well: in residence, school, and office buildings, and even in granaries, mills, and warehouses. Early-20th-centu…
