This is an exciting project, led by @nebulousflynn.bsky.social, to safeguard access to the UK’s digital 3D heritage at risk through over-reliance on commercial and free-to-use platforms for storage and dissemination. I'm happy to be serving on the advisory board and looking forward to discussions.

This is incredibly important work thinking through where to store, share, and engage with 3D models of open culture when commercial platforms aren't trusted stewards

Oh hey, it's me! Very excited to finally launch this project in partnership with @wikimediauk.bsky.social, funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund. If you produce or work with cultural heritage 3D data in UK I'd love to speak with you! Links in thread 👇

It's been an interesting & busy few weeks for me! Feeling grateful to have spoken at events in Belfast IE, Coventry UK, and Oslo NO. I'll share a recap soon in my newsletter, as well as some other exciting news about a project that is just getting underway 👀

A friend of mine at Scan Space NZ put together a survey aimed at better understanding the current state of the #photogrammetry & #3D scanning industry, including those in #glam & other cultural heritage institutions. Please take a peek if you have time! #archaeology docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

📢 @rijksmuseum.bsky.social's 2and3D Photography call for papers is still open—I recommend you throw your hat in the ring. 👍 I sit on the advisory board and it is one of my favourite heritage imaging conferences with a very welcoming and fun atmosphere! www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/whats-on/... #GLAM3D

🏛️ Call for EU Heritage Partners! 🏛️ Join our proposal for a #HorizonEurope project testing new tools for the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (#ECCCH). This is a funded opportunity to innovate. Deadline mid-Sept ⏳ Details here: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

My spatial heritage group on LinkedIn has reached over 1,600 members 🎉 linkedin.com/groups/13126... I used @rapidpipeline.bsky.social's new @blender.org plugin to locally optimise geometry and texture atlases for this little scene.

Can anyone share a link to live examples of 3D with user selectable 'layers' of label annotations? i.e. choose to view the same model overlaid with annotations from author A, author B, or author C? Or theme A, theme B, theme C? #3D #museums #GLAM3D

I wrote something about a recently completed digitisation and augmented reality project I undertook for the Saudi Arabia Ministry of Culture and ArcheoConsultant 🔗 open.substack.com/pub/nebulous... #GLAM3D #3DforCulture #museums #heritage #art #history #photogrammetry

A couple of years ago, CC hosted a panel discussion on 3D scanning as it relates to cultural heritage preservation, revitalization, access, and better sharing. This information is still useful today, watch here:

Following their 2025 conference, I wrote something about recent developments in @iiif.bsky.social's support for 3D data. "Interoperable, Accessible, Portable 3D Data: The IIIF specification for 3D data has been publicly revealed, time to get to work!" 🔗 nebulousflynn.substack.com/p/interopera...

Interested in the latest developments in the WIP @iiif.bsky.social #3D specification? Check out this presentation I made to the @cifa-imsig.bsky.social! (hint: you can try it out right now!) 🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKfM... #interoperability #GLAM3D

Today's @iiif.bsky.social 3D group call is at 12 noon ET / 17.00 BST / 18.00 CEST. We will recap the 3D spec launch at the IIIF Conference last week and plan some practical next steps for the group to support uptake and experimentation. Join the group for more info: iiif.io/community/gr...
