[okfn-discuss] programmer/consultant/advisor needed

Tue Jan 10 13:10:34 UTC 2012

Hello there,

I wonder if anyone can help. I need a programmer/consultant/advisor
conversant with Open Data practices (RDF etc), who might be willing to
work with me on the next phase of an art project called
Landscape-Portrait.

Overview.

Landscape-Portrait is public art project which collects video
portraits of person and place which act as a critique of those
produced by demographics. The work tours around the country inviting
collaboration between local artists, community professionals and
participants within each locale. The work has been running now in its
data gathering phase for five years and has collected an extensive
archive of video portraits.

The plan now is to release this video content as open data, with the
aim of offering an alternative view of person and place to that which
is derived from statistical information. In order to do this I need
the services of a programmer/consultant/advisor conversant with Open
Data practices (RDF etc), who might be willing to work with me on this
next phase.

The project is not a commercial exercise, it has been funded primarily
by the Arts Council of England, therefore there is not an extensive
budget, however we do has some funding. In addition the project is the
focus of my PHD, and therefore I can devote considerable time to it.

If you think you may have some time to help move the project onto the
next phase please drop me a line @: kevin at co-lab.org.

Phase one of the project itself can be viewed here: www.landscape-portrait.com
