[MCN-L] digital interpreter

2013-08-08 Thread Matt Wheeler
A more refined version of my earlier question--are there mobile device apps
on the market that will allow museum visitors to image a QR code for an
object and automatically navigate to a webpage with audio content? Thank
for any guidance--

[MCN-L] Digital interpreter

2013-08-08 Thread Matt Wheeler
We are planning a summer exhibit for 2015 and are considering making our
first foray into the use of a downloadable app to provide visitors with a
guided tour. I'm curious to know how people have approached this kind of
interactive content; are there apps already on the market? Do larger
institutions tend to develop their own? Many thanks.

[MCN-L] LODLAM Patterns - Call for Participation

I'm disappointed to see that galleries were left out.  LODGLAM would be even 
more fun to try to pronounce.

Subject: [MCN-L] LODLAM Patterns - Call for Participation

We invite you to join a collaborative effort to identify design patterns for 
Linked Data in Libraries, Archives, and Museums (LODLAM). A LODLAM design 
pattern identifies common problems, solutions, and examples found in current 
LAM metadata standards and emerging Linked Data approaches.  

Participants are invited to use the LODLAM Proto-Patterns wiki 
(http://lodlampatterns.org/protopattern) as platform for identifying potential 
problems, solutions, and contexts. In the wiki these patterns can be edited, 
refined, classified, and further developed over time. 

The results of this study will be used to understand what patterns exist in our 
current environment and what patterns are desirable as we move towards Linked 
Data approaches.  In other disciplines, design patterns have proven to be 
useful for broadening the debate about technical standards and as instructional 
tools.  Your participation in this study will guide the development of a 
representation pattern library (http://lodlampatterns.org) that can be useful 
to Linked Data users, developers, students, and metadata creation 
professionals.
