Description

In this episode, Sara Whitver talks to Rebecca Salzer about the development of the Dancing Digital project which she leads with collaborator Gesel Mason. Salzar and Mason have collaborated on a number of Digital Humanities endevors over the years. Their work seeks to document and make the work of women choreographers of color accessible through video documentary and archives. Their current endeavor extends this idea to creating visibility for these choreograhers through Linked Open Data in their new Digital Dancing Commons. The DDC is a wikibase project that will bidirectionally share Linked Open Data from a number of video archives projects, the wikibase DDC, and Wikimedia commons.
