Editor's Notes
- Briefly introduce yourself. The BL Labs Research Award recognises outstanding and innovative work that has been carried out using the British Library’s digital collections and data regarding a project or activity which shows the development of new knowledge, research methods or tools. There were 9 entries this year.
- Nandini Das is a Professor of English Literature and PI at the University of Liverpool, and an Emeritus Professor of English Literature and PI at Jadavpur University (India). They produced an Augmented Reality App that overlays British Library archival photographs and documentary information about historic buildings in the city of Kolkata, India.
- The comparative analysis of world music cultures has been the focus of several ethnomusicological studies in the last century. With the advances of Music Information Retrieval and the increased accessibility of sound archives, large-scale analysis of world music with computational tools is today feasible. We combine music recordings from two archives, the Smithsonian Folkways Recordings and British Library Sound Archive, to create one of the largest world music corpora studied so far. Our aim is to explore relationships of music similarity and dissimilarity between different geographical areas of the world.
