SUMMARY:At the Start of a Digital Humanities Project:
DTSTART:20200204T230000Z

DESCRIPTION:The Pompeii Artistic Landscape Project (PALP) is a Getty F
 oundation funded effort jointly undertaken by the University of Massac
 husetts and ISAW to create a digital tool for exploring the art of Pom
 peii within its architectural and urban context. The project is at its
  very earliest stages so that this talk will both describe its goals a
 long with the challenges we foresee and also describe the technical ar
 chitecture that we intend to implement. Most broadly conceived\, that 
 architecture is known as a "graph database." This way of modeling data
  can emphasize relationships between entities. That capability is usef
 ul at Pompeii because the site very frequently preserves the context o
 f the artworks that were displayed around the city prior to the erupti
 on of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Paintings are on walls\, those walls defi
 ne rooms\, rooms combine together to form public and private buildings
 \, those buildings not only have neighbors but are across streets from
  other buildings that in turn have rooms and walls that themselves bea
 r art. PALP intends to make these relationships queryable and the talk
  will explore our progress to date.
