  • Abstract
    It is possible to recognize the importance of knowledge of configurative geometry for creative thinking, the scientific knowledge and the practice? Do we can attribute to a geometric knowledge a founding and fundamental role for the correct displaying of the knowledge of the cultural heritage? The answers are affirmative certainly understanding that if this knowledge not only allows manual graphics processing (and, consequently, digital), at the same time rigorous and expressive, but is also fundamental for the construction of charming and realistic in motion computer images. Moreover, flexible geometry still ensures achieving a high level of expressive capacity, spendable in any other experience of architects and engineers, aimed at both the documentation and the design of complex and articulate spaces and structures. Being inadequate the only paper for the restitution of the aspects of dynamism and of going trough architectural spaces, we propose the management, in a hypertext, of drawings, surveys, maps and historical iconography, real and digital movies of CAD reconstruction (taking, as a case study, the ecclesiastical architectural heritage of the Padova historic centre); management which, in different ways, provides the highest level of completeness and speed through an analysis of different resources.
