El corral del Príncipe: Reconstrucción 3D realizada en Los Sims 4
"Truan’s project primarily entails the development of a comprehensive 3D virtual and interactive model of the early modern Corral del Príncipe, situated in Madrid during what is known as the Spanish Golden Age (1492–1681) and renowned for hosting plays (comedias) by esteemed writers such as Félix Lope de Vega and Pedro Calderón de la Barca. In its architectural essence, the project mirrors the various endeavours of those who have used The Sims to reconstruct other theatres, such as Shakespeare’s Globe, a structure contemporary with many Spanish corrales.2 This connection to the Globe and Shakespeare, one of the most well-known early modern writers, coupled with the relative accessibility of the reconstruction provided by The Sims and YouTube, boosts the potential of Truan’s project to significantly enhance the visibility of the corrales and the broader cultural expression they represent."
