Academic Research

Lufo's academic research

Here you can find an updated list of my academic research. So, here you will find book sections, journal articles, congress papers, presentations, exhibitions and books’ editions. 

This collection of articles starts with lukewarm papers written since 2010 as “intuitive” investigation. Then, it passes through the theory and practice for drawing in cubical perspective (period 2017-2021). 

From 2021 on, the publications are focused in the field of digital arts, reflecting the progress of a second PhD yet in course. In particular, with these articles I seek the development of the theoretical background, guidelines, good practices, algorithms, and case studies for immersive drawing. 

Hopefully, my academic research will contribute to the debate in the field of drawing. And why not, also to generate new methods for immersive representation systems: new ways of drawing that are currently coming to the light in their full potential.

Just in case...

These publications are the result of my academic research about drawingApart of research, I do many other things as well, you can find an extended bio here and here.

Note: this page retrieves automatically the list of articles from an external server. This might take a while to load. In case you don’t see the items, you can visit my Zotero profile here.

Some of these articles have limitations from the editors and therefore it is not possible to share them openly. In case of needing some of these articles write me.
