< Back Linked Data Search For Donors To Leopold McClintock's 1857 Franklin search expedition Wikidata, linked data, indirectly published. The Fourth Portal Lab hosts a plaque dedicated to the crew lost searching for the Northwest Passage in 1845. This PhD research uses a form of linking data to decipher the donors who paid for a search party to go out and find the ships. All Well Polar Notes by Allegra Rosenberg 7 Dec 2022 Example of linking data The Fourth Portal Lab hosts a plaque dedicated to the crew lost searching for the Northwest Passage in 1845. This PhD research uses a form of linking data to decipher the donors who paid for a search party to find the ships. ___ Using the list included in the book The Voyage of the Fox, I sought out biographical detail for as many of the donors to Leopold McClintock’s 1857 expedition in search of Sir John Franklin as I could find. The list is a fascinating cross-section of Victorian society: from artists to Chartists, musicians to engineers, Navy and Army men to Bishops, all invested in the ongoing public project that was the search for Franklin. There are many rich peers and notable MPs on the list, but there are also many nigh-anonymous Esqs. and Misses who gave just a few shillings. Naturally I was able to find far more biographical detail on the wealthier and more famous donors—however, in opening this up as a Public Humanities project I hope to receive comments and input that will expand the available information to hopefully include more details about the unidentified donors. ___ Full details here The Donors of the Fox Posted on December 7, 2022 by admin This summer, I was the recipient of the generous Digital Humanities Fellowship from NYU. My proposed project was a broad-reaching initiative called “Visualizing the Victorian Polar Network,” but once the fellowship began I quickly realized I had to narrow my view, and ended up settling on a revised version of my project where I would create an interactive, annotated biographical database of all of the donors to Leopold McClintock’s 1857 Franklin search expedition, spearheaded by Lady Jane Franklin as a private expedition to look for her missing husband and his crew after the Admiralty had abdicated all responsibility for the continuing search. cont ... https://allegrarosenberg.notion.site/9d3c4db5a6f743668405ef7166729358?v=25c9bbaa820c4542b8e1a6278f5ec7c7 For more: Machine Learning, Linked Data, Meta Tags Previous Next

- Unnamed | FourthPortal
< Back Unnamed Regular visitor who wishes not to be identified. While on an evening river walk with a local group, we stopped at St Andrews to look at Bawley Bay and the low commemorative plaque on the pavement corner. Fascinated by the plants outside, we peered meekly into the lobby. ( A W.I. meeting inside perhaps?). Animated by this discovery, we had an ad hoc discussion-while we blocked the pavement-about what Gravesend meant for us, in its unexpected richness. Many of the group were unaware that there even artists in the town! This individual visited the following day, with the rest being history, as is said. Q1: How and when did you first discover the Fourth Portal? While on an evening river walk with a local group, we stopped at St Andrews to look at Bawley Bay and the low commemorative plaque on the pavement corner. Fascinated by the plants outside, we peered meekly into the lobby. ( A W.I. meeting inside perhaps?). Animated by this discovery, we had an ad hoc discussion-while we blocked the pavement-about what Gravesend meant for us, in its unexpected richness. Many of the group were unaware that there even artists in the town! This individual visited the following day, with the rest being history, as is said. Q2: What were your initial impressions? St Andrews is now inviting-bowls one over-as it is open for more than just art exhibitions, yoga sessions and play readings. The inviting rich interior, with the evocative stained glass windows and objet d'art provide the stimulus to visit regularly, to support events and to meet friends rather than 'up' in the town. (As St Andrews is unimpeded on 3 sides, the light reflected off the Thames and from Bawley Bay at high tide, filters through the stained glass windows and is probably as the architect and artist envisaged them to be -as islands of spiritual and visual inspiration.) Q3: How has Fourth Portal inspired you? St Andrews emanates positive energy- enhanced by the continually evolving website-and the constant flow of creative visitors. This suggested to the writer the use of black biro- rather then the revered black ink- freedom from 90 degree paper corners as the paper was slightly off key, and by folding the sheet beforehand, freedom too from the flat surface.(Why not retrieve charcoal from a riverside barbecue, and draw on a greasy crumpled paper bag..indeed!) St Andrews presents an alternative to formal exhibitions, with refreshing insights into ways of making art. Q4: Will the inspiration be of benefit in the future? It would be untrue to deny the inspiration and impact that this initiative has had. It has given one the freedom to move away from the expensively mounted, framed art work, the attendant long C.V., the submission and selling fees, the pressure to sell to cover basic costs, as well as 'saving face' under the barrage of...'and you did not even sell!' It was a pleasure to be with unknown creative individuals -artists and visitors alike- all of whom responded with freshness and originality to the proposal. Q5: (optional) Anything you wish to add? (One hopes that somewhere in the wordy above, there is a positive kernel for fourthportal.) The picture will be sent via Whats App, soon. It was taken at about 9.50 am, on the overcast Wednesday 3rd January, from the corner outside the still closed market. Its black mass, with south light filtering through the skylights, inspired this photo. With my appreciation for your energy, insight and appreciation of the creative process, that enabled Versatility of Paper to become the success it has proved to be. Thank you, too, for your hard work for the accompanying Commemorative Newspaper. Previous Next
