Hi Darcy, Adam, Intangible Heritage is an interesting idea and something that we in the heritage community in the EU are increasingly wanting to record. So it would be great if you could produce a graph that we could all use.
However, there is a possible problem. My understanding of the CRM is that it was intended for documenting real world things. Intangible heritage is by its very intangible. I’ve sent a message to the Gods of the CRM who I hope will be able to advise us as to a) whether the CRM can represent Intangible heritage and, if not, b) do they know of an ontology that can.

Christ Cc: Arches Project Subject: Re: [Arches] Re: Creating a new resource Gotchya. Yes, for something brand new, your graph would probably be significantly different from the defaults, but it's still worth taking a close look at the Heritage Resource graph and see how far you can get with renaming nodes... Ultimately, even for making a new resource type, I'd recommend beginning with an existing graph and just adding/removing branches from it. You should also be aware that these exact modifications are what Arches v4 will have a whole new way of supporting. So, depending on how long term you are thinking, it may be well worth the wait. There's a development timeline in the github wiki<https://github.com/archesproject/arches/wiki> for arches that shows Farallon's planned development of that version, which ends in May. One of the biggest improvements to that version will be a "configuration manager" which will facilitate the creation of graphs and forms within the app itself. If you want to begin significant work on the creation of the intangible heritage before then, I'd be happy to help out. The first, and most laborious, step would be to just print out the heritage resource graph, and sit down with the CIDOC CRM, and start modeling branches and nodes... When you have that 95% done (because you'll need to revise it no matter what), I'd recommend that you work with gephi (which can be tricky but does work well) to make the real graph model. Good luck!

We’re exploring support for Intangible Cultural Heritage (to be named something like Cultural and Natural Properties). At the moment, it doesn’t seem to fit into the other sections, but perhaps we are thinking about it incorrectly. This is a long-term project which I am happy to develop support for, provided that we are on the right path. What do you think? Darcy W.

In the database these are defined by the resource graphs, one per resource type. Here's<http://arches-hip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/hip-resources/> the documentation about that. Are you talking about making a new resource type? It's a bit of an involved process because those types are referenced in a few places throughout the app. I'd definitely recommend taking a close look at the default graphs, because it may be that some modifications to those will suit your needs. There are a few steps involved for modifying (adding/removing/renaming nodes) resource graphs, but it would be much easier than adding a completely new resource type. You should be able to find some threads on here with info on modifying resource graphs. Hope that's helpful, let me know if you need more info.
