Joint MEC TEI conference 2023 — This group brings together material shared by the conference attendees.
The conference theme invites us to think about the need to encode different cultural realms — not only written musical and literary cultures, but also oral cultures, the cultures of underrepresented communities, and even cultural practices beyond language and music, such as dance, theater, and film. In coming together to identify and discuss the commonalities and differences between our two coding communities, we aim to discover new methods and new approaches to encoding culture in all its forms.

"Encoding Cultures" Joint MEC and TEI Conference on Humanities Commons 1 day, 21 hours ago
ABSTRACT

While this philosophy is suitable for modern notations, it does not necessarily apply to the encoding of neumes. Early notations (9th – 13th century) conveyed a different set of musical instructions from w…[Read more] -

"Encoding Cultures" Joint MEC and TEI Conference on Humanities Commons 2 weeks ago
Encoding right-to-left script in TEI-XML is a hassle unless one uses an editor that hides away the tags. The problem arises when element names in Latin script interrupt the right-to-left rendering on the editor screen by the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm. (Davis et al. 2022) However, hiding the tags is not the only solution. With <altIdent> TEI…[Read more]

"Encoding Cultures" Joint MEC and TEI Conference on Humanities Commons 2 weeks ago
The XPointer framework is one of those W3C notions that is dead today. Same with the TEI XPointer schemes. The cause of dead is manifold and ranges from a lack of implementations to weaknesses of the specification: It is unclear, what a processor is to do with the pointers, that actually only point to a portion of a resource. As a consequence,…[Read more]

In digital musicology, the widely adopted de facto standard for creating digital critical editions is the encoding format defined by the Music Encoding Initiative. However, the usual workflow to arrive at the desired encoding involves the use of well-established WYSIWYG music notation software. Scores are mostly prepared in the conventional way…[Read more]
