CultureWok - CultureWok. LA Welcomes Serendip-o-matic to the App Library. From the One Week | One Tool Team's August 2, 2013 press release After five days and nights of intense collaboration, the One Week | One Tool digital humanities team has unveiled its web application: Serendip-o-matic < Unlike conventional search tools, this “serendipity engine” takes in any text, such as an article, song lyrics, or a bibliography. It then extracts key terms, delivering similar results from the vast online collections of the Digital Public Library of America, Europeana, and Flickr Commons.
Because Serendip-o-matic asks sources to speak for themselves, users can step back and discover connections they never knew existed. The team worked to re-create that moment when a friend recommends an amazing book, or a librarian suggests a new source. It’s not search, it’s serendipity. Serendip-o-matic works for many different users. Serendip-o-matic is easy to use and freely available to the public. E-PIGRAMME : Edition numérique et valorisation de la Collection des Inscriptions grecques du Louvre. La collection des inscriptions grecques conservées au Musée du Louvre s’est constituée au hasard des acquisitions, confiscations, dons et transferts depuis l’époque de Louis XIV ; elle comprend environ 700 documents répartis sur à peu près 10 siècles, depuis le VI e s. av. J. -C. jusqu’au IV e s. ap. J. -C. Le programme E-PIGRAMME, Epigraphie et Muséographie : Edition numérique et valorisation de la collection des inscriptions grecques du Louvre correspond à la phase de « mise en production », enrichie de nouvelles dimensions, d’un projet d’édition électronique qui fut présenté au jury international de l’ Institut Universitaire de France et avalisé par la nomination de Michèle Brunet comme membre Senior fin 2009.
Ce programme est proposé à un moment-clé du développement en France des Humanités Numériques. Le projet E-PIGRAMME a été sélectionné pour financement par l’Agence Nationale de la Recherche dans le cadre de l’ Appel à programme « Blanc » 2012. Homeless Paintings: crowdsourcing the diaspora of Italian renaissance art. Amidst the archives that Bernard Berenson bequeathed to Harvard University at his Villa I Tatti in Florence is a collection of 17,000 photographs of Renaissance Italian paintings classified as “homeless”: works that were documented by a photograph but whose location was unknown.
In a series of articles that appeared between 1929 and 1932 in the journals International Studio and Dedalo (posthumously collected, updated, and translated from the Italian as Homeless Paintings of the Renaissance, 1969), Berenson published some of his photographs of these artworks with the hope that their owners might come forward and claim them as their own. He intended to use the information offered to bring up to date his continuously revised “Lists” of the works of Italian Painters of the Renaissance, manuals that made available a body of unfamiliar images to a broad public of art lovers, collectors, and scholars.

Qbic -The State Hermitage Museum: Digital Collection. Imagine finding a Gauguin masterpiece simply by recalling the organisation of his subjects or locating a Da Vinci painting by searching for its predominant colours.
IBM's experimental Query By Image Content (QBIC) search technology offers this unique ability. Search for artwork visually using tools that an artist would use. For an overview of the QBIC searches, take a look at our animated demonstrations. The QBIC Colour Search locates two-dimensional artwork in the Digital Collection that match the colours you specify. You select colours from a spectrum, define proportions, then execute the search. With the QBIC Layout Search, you become the artist. Copyright ©2003 State Hermitage Museum. Artigo-Social Image Tagging. Goals of ARTigo Art history studies mainly original artworks, but often their reproductions, too. Today, these reproductions exist in substantial electronic repositories sometimes amounting to several million items. What can we do to retrieve these reproductions preferably on the basis of various criteria? As the possibilities of a computerized search of these reproductions are still very limited we allocate keywords, known as metadata.
This is a most time-consuming operation and one would need a great number of staff members to do this job. We would appreciate your contribution to this game. Image portfolio The underlying image portfolio is retained from the Artemis database, which was assembled at the Institute for Art History at the University of Munich in cooperation with the IT-Group Humanities and now contains more than 25.000 images.
Project funding The project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) You can also reach us per email at artigo@artigo.org Contributors Prof. Steve.Museum | Steve: The Museum Social Tagging Project. Art.sy - Discover fine art.
