Press coverage for Thomaner project

Published by {{by}} on {{at}}.

Abstract:

The local newspaper LVZ (Leipziger Volkszeitung) has published two articles about our project with the St. Thomas boy choral.

In 2012 Leipzig will celebrate the 800th anniversary of the famous boy choral Thomaner. Funded by the German Research Foundation and in cooperation with historians at the University of Leipzig the Lab is working on a database for the chorale’s repertoire from 1808 to 2008. Naturally the whole solution will base on Topic Maps.

In preparation of the launch in late autumn this year the local newspaper covered the project with an article in print and a slightly different on the website (both are in GERMAN).

As a former information scientist, I am fascinated since 1999 by the capabilities for building Topic Maps-based knowledge systems having the potential to augment human mind. One can model arbitrary knowledge organization systems, deal with semantic heterogeneity, collocate all facts about one subject in one logical place, and with TMQL have semantic retrieval on federated semantic networks. Therefore I expect bright prospects for business concepts building on the exchange of such knowledge snippets via semantic knowledge services.
