On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Sound art includes a complex set of practices across multiple modes, media or tools. Expanded from a cognitive science model, Procedural Blending was developed to describe the process of creating intricate works of art. It has some similarities with provenance recording models such as W3C PROV, or CIDOC CRM, but also caters for recording decision points and motivations. This talk will introduce the key features of Procedural Blending and suggest some ways in which it can be applied to making and discussing work, facilitating collaborations and capturing process.
