My PhD thesis "Linked Open Usable Data for Cultural Heritage: Perspectives on Community Practices and Semantic Interoperability" is now (finally) available in HTML format: https://phd.julsraemy.ch/thesis.html (not perfect I reckon)
The PDF was published in December 2024 on the University of Basel's repository: https://doi.org/10.5451/unibas-ep96807.

@julsraemy @azaroth42 I’m really happy to see #LinkedArt 1.0 released. It’s a good reminder to look at it again more closely. To be honest, in the past I’ve been pretty overwhelmed by its “reverse classification“ approach to basic properties. I still can’t wrap my head around how to integrate the pattern "X classified_as Y classified_as Prop" into my workflow instead of the more familiar "X Prop Y". I guess I’ll have to look at a few more usage examples.

This is great and I almost mist it out!!!!
Today marks a major milestone for cultural heritage: Linked Art 1.0 is officially released! 🎉
This specification (data model and API) provides museums, libraries, and archives with a standardised way to share and connect their collections data, built on standards.
Proud to see major institutions already adopting Linked Art (Yale, Rijksmuseum, Getty, National Gallery of Art) which makes cultural heritage data more discoverable, accessible, and connected.

Vacancy! The #rijksmuseum is looking for a new Head of Collection IT. Do you dream about museum collection technology, linked open data, and AI to connect people with art and history? Then we would love to hear from you - https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/careers/vacancies/head-collection-it--1141840

I am thrilled to share that I successfully defended my PhD, Linked Open Usable Data for Cultural Heritage: Perspectives on Community Practices and Semantic Interoperability, at the University of Basel yesterday! 🎉 The presentation is available here: https://julsraemy.ch/prezi/loud4ch-doctoral-examination.html.
In the coming months, the dissertation will be openly accessible both as a PDF in the university library's repository and on a dedicated website in HTML: https://phd.julsraemy.ch.
A big thank you to everyone who supported me along this journey, especially my supervisors Peter Fornaro, Walter Leimgruber, and @azaroth42

Feeling a bit envious not being in Amsterdam this week for the #CIDOC2024 conference at the Rijksmuseum. Wishing everyone attending an insightful experience #FOMO #CulturalHeritage #CIDOCCRM #LinkedArt
I have just submitted my PhD Thesis! 🙂 Examination/Defence scheduled on November 18th. #PhDsubmitted #culturalheritage #loud #iiif #LinkedArt #YaleLUX
The book chapter I wrote with @azaroth42 has been published: https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-57675-1_4
It examines the potential of interoperability and standardised data for cultural heritage resources.
Highlights:
- Advances by the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) for image-based resources.
- The role of Linked Art in facilitating the integration and sharing of semantic cultural heritage data.
- A practical case study with LUX, the Yale Collections Discovery platform, showcasing linked data at scale.

A new #introduction
Hello there, Julien here.
Since Tuesday, I now work as a Data Scientist at the Swiss Federal Archives and in parallel I'm still - one day per week - working for DaSCH, Swiss National Data & Service Center for the Humanities as an Interoperability Specialist. In both of these endeavours, I advocate for implementing and re-using community-driven specifications and compliant software: #IIIF, #LinkedArt.
Moreover, I'm keeping up the work on my doctoral thesis on Linked Open Usable Data for Cultural Heritage - which I hope to submit by the end of August and defend in November. #loud #culturalheritage
@csarven hey Sarven! I am actually considering leveraging Dokieli (at least for the thesis.html part, the other pages are more for context), maybe I will need your help to set it up. 🙂
Another thing that I want to do is to propose a #LinkedArt API so that people can also harvest my thesis this way.
Aujourd'hui, je vais faire une présentation sur le Linked Open Usable Data (LOUD) dans le cadre de la conférence internationale sur les humanités numériques (CIHN24) qui se déroule à la Haute école de gestion de Genève.
Je parle un peu de ce que je fais dans ma thèse de doctorat, des standards provenant des communautés #IIIF et #LinkedArt et pourquoi la collaboration transversale des communautés #LOUD est importante pour les institutions du patrimoine culturel.

Sicher wäre es auch interessant, sich mit https://linked.art auseinanderzusetzen, statt alles neu zu erfinden:
“Linked Art is a Community working together to create a shared Model based on Linked Open Data to describe Art. We then implement that model in Software and use it to provide valuable content. It is under active development and we welcome additional partners and collaborators.“

Happy to share that our #dhnb2023 paper is now available. Many thanks to @dhnb and the University of Oslo Library for publishing the conference proceedings in this new Diamond OA journal.
Have a look at https://journals.uio.no/dhnbpub/article/view/10649 if you want to know more about the PIA research project. #iiif #loud #linkedart #participatorydesign
After an extremely interesting conversation about #LinkedArt #ontology in #Amsterdam, I'm going to see how it can be used it to explore the Miedl Nazi art looting and smuggling #network.
Zoom on one of the names in the Miedl network: Hoogendijk.
Which museum provenances contain a mention of the name?
Is it the same name as the person investigated? Or someone else?
How to link the provenances to the name to the history to the context?
#LinkedArt being mentioned by Chris Dijkshoorn as a standardised data structure for the Rijksmuseum #EuropeanaTech2023
It is "papers' season"! With @azaroth42, we published a preprint, currently under peer review for potential inclusion in the book "Decoding Cultural Heritage: a critical dissection and taxonomy of human creativity through digital tools".
It's called "Analysis of the Usability of Automatically Enriched Cultural Heritage Data" and we talk about the potential of interoperability and standardised data publication for cultural heritage resources, namely focusing (you guess it) on #IIIF, #LinkedArt, #LOUD and LUX, Yale Collections Discovery platform.
Very pleased that our research paper has just been published on ACM Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage (JOCCH).
This contribution is part of the Special Issue on “Applying Innovative Technologies to Digitised and Born-Digital Archives” which is made possible through the AEOLIAN (Artificial Intelligence for Cultural Organisations) Network.
In our paper, we reflect on some of the preliminary findings of the PIA research project around annotations of photographic archives from the Swiss Society for Folklore Studies as knowledge practices, the underlying technological decisions, and their impact.
This was a truly interdisciplinary effort as we were one PhD Candidate in Cultural Anthropology (Murielle Cornut), one PhD Candidate in Computer Science (Florian Spiess), and myself.
