In 2014, the Danish Centre for Music Editing (DCM) published the first ever thematic-bibliographic catalogue of Carl Nielsen's (1865-1931) works.

Music Information Retrieval (MIR), as an interdisciplinary area of research, has developed rapidly in the last decades.

Join us for the first in our series of Digital Humanities Breakfasts. Come along and enjoy food and fascinating lightning talks from academics and researchers working in the Digital Humanities at Oxford.

Join us at our open weekend to discover more about John Sadler and the process of digitally reconstructing his partbooks.

With funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council, the Tudor Partbooks team are digitally reconstructing Sadler's manuscripts to return them to their former glory and a more legible state.

This session aims to demystify the Digital Humanities and show how the methods employed in this field might be of use to graduate students working in History, Literature, Music or other cognate disciplines.

Encoding music can serve a wide range of purposes and dozens of music codes have been developed.

Sonification is a complementary, but lesser known, technique to visualization.

'Spectral Landscapes is a mixed media event which will explore the concept of the "English Eerie": a form where use of the landscape in literature, film, art, music, and television creates a sense of unease and of Otherness to unnerving effect.

Event Speaker: Amy V Beeston, Liz Dobson

While music libraries around the world are digitizing millions of musical scores, there are currently very few efforts underway at extracting the musical content from these page images and making the music notation available for large-scale search and ana

Ada Lovelace’s notes on music and computation inspired the musical content of the Ada Lovelace Symposium held at the University of Oxford in December, on the 200th anniversary of her birth.

Digital research is an increasing priority in the humanities, and yet scholars frequently lack the necessary technical skills and support networks to realise their ideas.

This talk looks at some of the techniques of digital reconstruction and restoration developed by the Tudor Partbooks team, and some of the difficulties we have encountered, both physical and ethical, in developing this complex process.

Compared to visualization, approaching textual analysis through sonification is under-studied.

This workshop will bring together colleagues with a range of subject and disciplinary interests both to understand the scope of the current knowledge of the music- and text-encoding landscapes and to articulate fields for potential development.

The Semantic Web can be thought of as an extension of the World Wide Web in which sufficient meaning is captured and encoded such that computers can automatically match, retrieve, and link resources across the internet that are related to each other.

The Linked Music Hackathon brings together those with a shared passion for music and the data that describes it: students, coders, researchers from all disciplines, and members of the public; all with an interest in exploring, combining, playing, hacking,

The celebrations of Ada Lovelace’s 200th birthday demonstrated a larger interest in the intersection of machinery, music, and culture, and pushed existing disciplinary boundaries. The symposium will build on this and we look forward to developing ideas an

The AHRC funded Unlocking Musicology project has applied novel methods and tools across a wealth of digital music and music-related data.
