Dear Chet, Nicolas, Saskia, Karin, Ewa and All,

I'm writing to follow up from about a year ago, and also to introduce Karin Hansson (newly here, and in Sweden) to Ewa Machotka (in Sweden). Karin, I met Ewa in Stanford's Rumsey Map Center in February 2019, and Ewa, I met Karin online recently thanks to a Wikidata coding friend). Do you happen to know each other? You may have many common academic interests. Here below is the recent correspondence with Karin Hansson, and here too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/02/arctostaphylos-uva-ursi-combining.html - and potentially with regards to 'mapping the global imaginary' in an ongoing way.

With regard to this great Rumsey Maps' conference last year, and vis-a-vis planning for a single realistic virtual earth from mapping, and for all museums in all 7,111 languages + ever (think Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth with Translate and TensorFlow+, conceptually), am curious how best to explore further adding all the maps from this conference, all the museums and objects below, as well as how best to add archaeological dig finds into a realistic virtual earth for archaeology and some of which eventually also make their ways into museums? How best to explore and communicate about some of these questions further?

All the best, Scott

Here's some of Chet and my correspondence from last year: https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/02/marram-grass-california.html

Greetings - "Understand how new Europeana Entity Agents can be created"

Dear Karin,

Greetings from the SF Bay Area. Am exploring to -

"Understand how new Europeana Entity Agents can be created ..."

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T243907

and am learning here (having donated CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch to Wikidata for co-development in 2015 and received WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki as 'front end' in 2017 as a consequence, but they're not interoperable yet, and where WUaS has an all-museums' ever focus - beginning with - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - each a wiki subject page for open teaching & learning, and in all 7111 known living languages, as well as in a single interactive iterating realistic virtual world for wiki-adding too - think Google Street View with time slider Maps Earth TensorrFlow with SL etc ).

So, since "In Europeana there is nearly no Linked data and Agents is just about one museum saying that this painting is created by xxx that is the same creator we see in other museums ...."

I'm curious about what an Agent is here, to begin - and how would such an agent here work with Linked Open Data?.

In addition, 3 brainstorming items/ questions:

How to plan for Wikidata into WUaS Museum Wiki PAGES (at MIT OCW-centric WIKI World Univ & Sch, which again is planning to create wiki pages for all museums in all 7,111 known living languages) ?

How to plan for Wikidata into 1 wiki realistic virtual earth (think Streetview with group-buildable Second Life with avatars, but realistic)? ... (and regarding a new social science method i'm developing called - ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - with linked open data - see in general
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy?m=0)?

And how even to add new images of paintings taken by someone wearing Google
Glass to Europeana or Wikidata? Google Glass is here (and the idea too) - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/02/anagallis-arvensis-tour-us-national.html?m=0
...

For example, also from this Youtube video - Crocker Art Museum Sacramento, CA -

https://youtu.be/rL6LTiswXbk - in a related way?

I think as I learn more about how this would work, I'll also learn about agents, Europeana and Wikidata integration re its structured knowledge database, and for querying.

Thanks, Scott

Thanks for this in Telegram:

Getting unique identifiers for pictures in all platforms as we have ORCID for people and DOI for articles is to important ....

Right now we have smithsonian looking into this https://twitter.com/smithsonian/status/1233089929191673856?s=20

Smithsonian
https://twitter.com/SiobhanLeachman (and 2 others) Thanks for asking! Our team is looking into this now.

First off, what's an Agent in the sense of 'Europeana Entity Agents' and regarding this Phabricator item? And how would it 'act' (as a bot here?)

Cheers, Scott




Sat, Feb 29

Re further conversation, thanks for the Europeana - https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en - information in Telegram. Am partly seeking to answer my own questions regarding World Univ & Sch in my email to you, from the links you provided.

https://pro.europeana.eu/resources/apis/entity
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P7704

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T240290

And since World Univ & Sch's front end wiki subject pages are a bit like Wikipedia's - eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europeana with its Info Box which draws information from Wikidata, for ex. - eg https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P7704 - and which 'structured knowledge database' World Univ & Sch - eg https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Museums - will draw from in a similar way, I'm learning here. Thank you for this edifying conversation.

So I next added "Europeana - digitalized museum collections' link https://www.europeana.eu/" newly to the WUaS Museums' page https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Museums - which one main idea for WUaS.

And further, with an interest in facilitating wiki-adding photos to a realistic virtual earth such as Google Street View, I found the Louvre museum in Paris in Google Street View (with its TIME SLIDER) - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Louvre+Museum/@48.8606111,2.337644,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xb975fcfa192f84d4!8m2!3d48.8606111!4d2.337644.

I then found in Europeana the main page for the sculpture "The Winged Victory of Samothrace - Nike" which is in the Louvre - https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en/search?q=winged+victory+of+samothrace - and then some images for Nike of Samothrace in Europeana - https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en/record/2020903/KAS358.html?q=winged+victory+of+samothrace#dcId=1583003660830&p=1.


I then found "Nike" itself in Google Street View - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Louvre+Museum/@48.8606111,2.337644,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipPoR96VgFEXkk2nZScqIJAuNcI1_iLABGbZaPnh!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipPoR96VgFEXkk2nZScqIJAuNcI1_iLABGbZaPnh%3Dw203-h270-k-no!7i3024!8i4032!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xb975fcfa192f84d4!8m2!3d48.8606111!4d2.337644 - and if I had taken an excellent and unique photo (or video with docent presentation) of "Nike" I'd consider adding it to Street View as well, when and where I was standing in the Louvre I took it, so that this might become eventually part of the basis for an interactive Realistic Virtual Earth for Museums. (Now how to add many different Nike photos into a Realistic Virtual Earth for Museums in Google Street View with time slider for academic research and knowledge generation, and visiting too at different times in the Louvre's history, and in different ways? - is one question).

But how further to engage Wikidata regarding Europeana newly in Wikidata - and in World University and School's developing, conceptually, realistic virtual earth for museums (and archaeology!)?

Am thinking this through here, and learning about Wikidata (which WUaS is in) ... and newly with regards to Europeana. Have added some of our communications here already - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/02/aurora-prepping-for-pi-day-with-scratch.html . (Sorry I don't speak Swedish - and thank you for your understanding of English, Karin!)

Regards, Scott

"One interactive #RealisticVirtualEarthForMuseums ? Europeana museum - https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en since World Univ & Sch's front end wiki subject pages are like Wikipedia's eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europeana with its Info Box drawing on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P7704 - eg https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Museums ~ "
