  2. The CIRCUS Consortium is a working group funded by the EC’s Esprit programme. Circus brings together artists, designers, performers, theorists and computer scientists to debate the research issues posed by the next generation of advanced information technology for the creative and performing arts, media and the electronic publishing industry. It brings together partner institutions in the UK, Ireland, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Circus advises the ECon the integration of content and technology in terms of creative pull vs technology push CIRCUS aims to gain a fuller understanding of the relationships between content, medium and technology in user contexts ranging from data creators to data users, from entertainment through education to fundamental research. Some of the specific objectives of the CIRCUS working group were To address issues of Data Capture, Data Management and Data Delivery within creative production contexts To develop models of applications and theoretical research based on creative production practice To influence the development of future research projects, relevant standards, and experimental productions in the media industries. CIRCUS Existing activities in this area

  3. CIRCUS Existing activities in this area • How the CIRCUS Working Group works; • the Synergy Theme Metadata: • Ealing Studios, London 27.10.98 - first meeting, talk on “Metadata Management systems for the Performing Arts” (Carola Boehm, Dr. Stephen Arnold; Univ.o.Glasgow), discussed theme of Access through metadata • Angouleme 10.3.99 - “Describing artistic digital content: creating and using connectionist metadata ”, (Timo Honkelo; Univ. o. Helsinki), first metadata working group + recommendations (see next slide) • Ars Electronica, Linz 9.9.1999 (CUIDAD/CIRCUS) “MuTaTeD I, Metadata for Music Content”(Carola Boehm) • Dublin 21.10.99 - “The Metadata Bear, bearing the weight of accessibility”, metadata from content to context. (Carola Boehm). • Portsmouth 9.9.00 - “Metadata for the Creative Industries”(Patrick Brennan; Artism Ltd, Carola Boehm) , knowledge transfer into the industry, with industry reporting back on experiences gained. • Helsinki, 3-6.5.01 - “Pockets full of Memories”, Art-Installation, George Legrady and Professor Timo Honkela

  4. Some projects related to metadata , running in parallel to CIRCUS with feedback to and from the CIRCUS working group: MuTaTeD!, Concept of proof of integrating two standards, SMDL (Standard Music Description Language) and NIFF, Univ. of Glasgow MuTaTeD’II, Music Information Retrieval System with SMDL, Univ. of Glasgow Standards: MPEG7, SMDL, Hytime, Univ. of Glasgow Metadata for Artism Inc, Univ. of Glasgow MusicWeb Connect, European Project OpenDrama, Opera and state of the art technology, European Project Pocket full of Memories, Art-Installation, Univ of Helsinki, Merz Akademie, exhibited in Sept 2000 at the Louvre. etc CIRCUS Existing activities in this area

  5. The recommendations from CIRCUS regarding Metadata (very abbreviated, see report for details)

  6. CIRCUS SYNERGY THEMES Key issues to be addressed • DESCRIPTION OF CULTURE: ARCHITECTURES OF INFORMATION • Metadata for creative use contexts • Cultural and Connectionist Metadata • Standards supporting creativity • Open standards in creative use contexts • Data Structures for digital creative production systems • Style, Manner, Expression and processes in digital creative productions • THEORY AND METHODOLOGY OF DIGITAL CREATIVE PRODUCTION CONTEXTS • Theory relevant to practice • Best Practice examples • Strategic Citing of experimental work

  7. INTERACTIVITY AND THE FUTURE OF THE CREATIVE PRACTICE Technology Push - Creative Pull Applications User interfaces and interfaces extensions to support creative processes Creative empowerment - applications supporting style development and style Best practice in education for creative users Experimental interactive creative environments Taxonomies of interactivity INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORTS FOR INNOVATION OR CREATIVE PULL Implications for Education and Training Production methodologies for the creative industries Vertical Markets in the Creative Industries Business Models supporting creative processes Methodology for reflexivity within interdisciplinary practice CIRCUS SYNERGY THEMES Key issues to be addressed

  8. CUSTODIEV - A project implementing the creative pull idea of the CIRCUS working group see following slides of Dr. John Patterson’s “CUSTODIEV” Project (slides are from Luxembourg meeting, February 2001) CIRCUSVisionary examples of technological and application elements
