These Reflectance Tranformation Imaginging (RTI) models were created for the course HIST 5908, as credit toward the degree of Master of Arts in History – Public History with Specialization in Digital Humanities.
The goal of this project is to challenge dominant narratives of Canadian commemorative coins and to re-situate them in narratives that highlight the nuances of the histories they signify and obscure. The six coins chosen for this project were minted as part of the “Create a Centsation” millennium coin contest. It is time to flip these coins and listen to their tales.

The WebRTIViewer and the webGLRtiMaker, that made this project accesible online, were developed by Gianpaulo Palma, Visual Computing Lab of ISTI-CNR.
