KAPTUR conference, London, March 2013

  1. @jiscdatapool colleagues Clare and Adam should be arriving at Kaptur #jiscmrd workshop. Looking forward to hearing their report.
  2. At the #jiscmrd #kaptur_mrd workshop today – picked up lots of fabulous resources already – as to be expected of an arts project! 😉
  3. #kaptur_mrd have put together a research data word search for the closing conference #jiscmrd
  4. For those at #kaptur_mrd – here is the KAPTUR blog bit.ly/15sYNmu with lots of information about the project #jiscmrd
  5. Research data matters in the visual arts – introductory presentation from Leigh Garrett, VADS Director and KAPTUR Principal Investigator
  6. #kaptur_mrd hightlights 1) What is research data in the visual arts: extremely complex question which the project has explored #jiscmrd
  7. #kaptur_mrd hightlights 2) Policy adoption: almost there across the four institutions, with policies on managing research data #jiscmrd
  8. #kaptur_mrd highlights 3) Infrastructure: complex user requirements led to lack of comprehensive solution, but knowledge developed #jiscmrd
  9. #jiscmrd thought provoking questions to hand over after the end of the event **how what you learnt today will impact on yr practice?**
  10. Keynote: Research data – challenges for the visual arts – Kerstin Mey, Director of Research and Enterprise, University for the Creative Arts
  11. Now up at #kaptur_mrd Kerstin Mey, Director of research and enterprise at UCA: research data challenges for the visual arts #jiscmrd
  12. Definition of research data, from Edinburgh: ‘data which arises out of, and evidences, research’ #kaptur_mrd #jiscmrd
  13. @fmuir See also our research data and other definitions in our repository support pages: ed.ac.uk/schools-department…
    #kaptur_mrd #jiscmrd
  14. Fascinating overview of research data in the visual arts at #kaptur_mrd. Question: do artists also want to cite data? #jiscmrd
  15. #kaptur_mrd @brian_hole I can very well imagine artists, critics, historians wanting to reference ‘data’ (workings, materials, etc) #jiscmrd
  16. At the final KAPTUR workshop in London today. Excellent so far, providing inspiration for DCC’s future Arts support work. #jiscmrd #ukdcc
  17. Supporting Research Data Management: the JISC MRD programme – Simon Hodson, JISC MRD Programme Manager

    Science as an Open Enterprise #jiscmrd

    cc @lescarr Sure you know all about this stuff anyway

  21. Piloting KAPTUR in the Arts – Carlos Silva, KAPTUR Technical Manager
  22. Wonderfully visual presentation now from Carlos Silva, #kaptur_mrd technical officer #jiscmrd
  23. #jiscmrd Q: which technical system is the most suitable for managing data?
  24. #kaptur_mrd identified short list of six systems for managing visual arts data: DataFlow, ePrints, DSpace, Fedora, CKAN, Figshare #jiscmrd
  25. interesting evernote not be included in the technical analysis ? #jiscmrd (I’m not a big fan but…just wondering) #eprints – final 4 yay 😀
  26. #jiscmrd not all the research output in Arts is in digital format
  27. nice ckan upload form. EdShare UI could work like this stepped approach for inputing materials…#eprints @edsharesoton #edshareredux #jiscmrd
  28. #jiscmrd CKAN Impressive functionality of imputing & showing art research data – demo by Carlos Silva
  29. Great closing gag from Carlos ‘FIN (ish…)’ – there will be ongoing work on CKAN with other #jiscmrd projects and the community #kaptur_mrd
  30. ckan is where you collect your stuff (desktop client ala evernote?) then connects to ePrints as the place for the finished output #jiscmrd
  31. Raising the profile of Research Data Management: the UCA story – Anne Spalding, KAPTUR Project Officer
  32. #jiscmrd Great digital storytelling presentation by Anne Spalding

  35. Towards a research data management policy at Goldsmiths – Andrew Gray, KAPTUR Project Officer
  36. Goldsmiths will have training aims at gathering data for the repository #jiscmrd #kaptur_rdm
  37. PI takes responsibly to work with the Research Data Management policy at GS – Goldsmiths using ePrints – Tetrabyte(?) of Storage #jiscmrd
  38. #jiscmrd think how a RDM policy will impact on researchers workload – key recommendation by Andrew Gray
  39. I believe ePrints has pretty good stats. at least the data i grabbed from EdShare also built on ePrints is nice #jiscmrd
  40. Arts Research Data. It’s as easy as 123 or is that ABC? – Robin Burgess, KAPTUR Project Officer
  41. #jiscmrd Very creative approach to relate an A-Z terminology for #RDM in Glasgow School of Art

  44. Important question: what licence are you using for artistic materials/outputs/data in the GSA repository? #kaptur_mrd #jiscmrd
  45. GSA are still working on licensing and advice – VADS have issues with CC0 #kaptur_mrd #jiscmrd
  46. Engaging policies at UAL: towards a policy for Research Data Management – Sarah Mahurter, KAPTUR Project Officer
  47. Archiving the process is a term that resonated at UAL, rather than ‘research data’ #jiscmrd #kaptur_mrd
  48. @UALKaptur mentioning Charlotte Hodes – see detail of papercut on #jiscmrd #kaptur_mrd USB stick – if you look closely u can see figures!
  49. University of the Arts London research data management policy and some guidance bit.ly/PmmE3O #jiscmrd #kaptur_rdm
  50. Mahurter argues that there are unique issues and opportunities in looking after research data / assets at UAL #jiscmrd #kaptur_mrd
