Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Simplified entity‑level graph describing the 2017 NYC rendition of An der schönen blauen Donau. Rectangles: entity labels. Rounded rectangles: Web resources.

Figure 2

A Linked Data annotation (corresponding to the example in Section 5.2.2) is captured on an encoded score using mei‑friend.

Figure 3

Listen Here!: Linked Data (Music Annotation Ontology) annotation corresponding to the example in Section 5.2.2 projected onto performance renditions.

Figure 4

Simplified annotation workflow: (i) Evidence objects supporting a finding are formalised as MAO Music Objects – here, using mei‑friend’s tools for score selection and annotation. (ii) Multimodal enrichment of these structures is carried out using compatible tooling – here, relevant aligned timeline intervals are identified using Listen Here! and captured as additional MAO Selections. (iii) A textual annotation (Web Annotation) is associated with the MAO Music Object stack. (iv) The combined annotation structure can be viewed accessibly (to human readers) through a browser, using the Primal viewer, or it may be requested as machine‑readable Linked Data. Note: Discovery service details withheld for simplicity; see illustration in Weigl et al. (2023).

Figure 5

Primal (excerpt): Our Linked Data annotations – https://w3id.org/ssv/TISMIR/annot/oa/ExDonau in the example from Section 5.2.2 – redirect to human‑readable hypermedia publication views when their URIs are retrieved through a Web‑browser. Requests specifying RDF serialisations (e.g. by machine agents) instead retrieve the underlying Linked Data via content negotiation.
