I’m proud to announce that this (vanda.com.kh) is my latest work in web design/development. I finished it 2 weeks ago but postponed posting it here until they actually updated some information on the website.

This is a speech by Dr. Katsushi Ikeuchi who carried out a project to digitally model Bayon Temple with his student students in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Enjoy watching!
Enjoying amazing ancient structures through Internet technologies is one of
the most promising methods to promote our culture and cultural heritage.
These technologies involve sensing, transmission, and display. In this talk,
I will briefly explain these three aspects, and then focus on sensing
issues, in particular, the technical challenges presented by sensing huge
outdoor structures. I will describe the technical challenges and how we
solved them as we confronted the difficult task of modeling the huge Bayon
Temple in the Angkor ruin in Cambodia. I will show the digital data we
obtained, including the entire structure of the temple, the hundred and
seventy-three faces of deities, and the hidden pediments. I will also
explain some of the technical issues involved in displaying the data we
obtained, using our virtual Aska as an example.
I found this Cambodian women’s profile in a Museum in Wellington, New Zealand. Here it says:
Necklace and bracelet
about 1970When Niborom left Cambodia, her mother gave her these as a parting gift. The two never saw each other again. Niborom’s mother was murdered by the Khmer Rouge.
I have this Khmok(mask) on my pin-up board. It is a miniature one so we can’t wear it hehe. Anyways, let’s find out information about it.
