Moving from Documentation to Knowledge Building: ResearchSpace Principles and Practices
28 November, 2018
Lecture at museum4punkt0
Speaker: Dominic Oldman
Abstract: Cultural Heritage documentation and cataloguing was designed for a narrow range of institutional functions and is unable to satisfy the different uses and potential that networks of information and people enable. For digital networks of cultural heritage data to be sustainable they need to address a wider range of contextual and historical relationships, reflect changing knowledge and different perspectives, and provide sufficient expressiveness and meaning to provide a dynamic environment required for better collaborative and engagement. ResearchSpace seeks to provide a new type of panoramic knowledge environment that creates greater use value. It addresses the problem of digital relevance and sustainability for structured data applications associated with static and reference based online resources.
