Child
Music experience in childhood
This pilot will build a knowledge graph of the historical experience of music in childhood, using life writing (letters, diaries, memoirs, travel writing) and other historical texts as sources for adult reflections on music heard in childhood, third-party observations on children’s engagement with music, and children’s own first-hand accounts. The resulting knowledge graphs will inform an interface enabling the exploration and analysis through the dimensions of themes, time, and space.Recent News

In order to answer research questions, musical heritage scholars need to combine diverse datasets ranging from music scores, audiovisual material to metadata. They need to identify similar entities and concepts implicitly present in the data, across different collections in different institutions. This process is currently mainly conducted manually, with the diverse results being rarely connected and shared in a way to be easily reused. To overcome the burden of this manual task, INTERLINK will focus on revealing and making compatible the entities and concepts hidden in digital music libraries and audiovisual archives. Pilot leader Jacopo de Berardinis tells in the latest video how they will do that with state-of-the-art methods for computational music analysis.
