Short Biography |
I am currently involved in the coding of a software system enabling the capture of live musicological and theatrical performance through expert annotation and the publication of that research output as Linked Data, as well designing and building the semantic infrastructure for Transforming Musicology (an AHRC project). These tasks are built on a foundation of previous experience of applying Linked Data technologies to Digital Humanities data. Recent projects have ranged from ancient Middle Eastern languages to Early English literature, but in each case, output aims have remained the same: data as RDF (produced with custom-built Python scripts or by using existing open-source software such as Web-Karma (University of Southern California) for data integration, or Protégé (University of Stanford) for ontology implementation and development), queried through SPARQL-endpoints on triplestores such as Virtuoso, or viewed through interfaces such as Pubby. |
