#norkorr — Public Fediverse posts

During the next two to three weeks, I will post regularly on the #NorKorr #NorwegianCorrespondences weblog. I'm on research leave and working on finishing a paper I presented last summer at a conference.
Follow along and perhaps learn something new or interesting about Norway, letters, migration, and data.

As part of my summer wrap-up, I am writing a blog post about my recent trip to Berlin, where I gave a talk at the Briefkulturen conference. I looked into the challenges of authority data for common people in the context of the #NorKorr #NorwegianCorrespondences project.

The post became a blend of conference report and some ideas I had developed for the talk.

First time today giving a talk at a conference after a 14-month hiatus.
I am overprepared, but feel like it's my first presentation whatsoever!

I will discuss niche topics with a focus on Norway, such as letters & correspondence, metadata, authority data, & the mass migration of Norwegian settlers to the Americas during the C19th.

The talk is in German, with English slides. You can get both the script and the slides fresh from Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15647974.

Today, I visited #NorskRegnesentral #NorwegianComputingCentre, co-located with the #UniversityOslo in the science park.
They created the Norwegian Historical Population Register #HistReg, which establishes #AuthorityData for Norwegian persons from 1800 onwards. https://histreg.no/index.php/home
I will use HistReg in the #NorwegianCorrespondences #NorKorr project, where we collect metadata of letters in the Correspondence Metadata Interchange Format #CMIF for integration into the @correspSearch service.

#NorKorr, the Norwegian Correspondences project, is planning to host a #CMIF #CorrespondenceMetadataInterchangeFormat generator challenge. We want to add all the letters from Norwegian emigrants of the Americas to their families back home to the @correspSearch service.

Tiny follow-up: my application for 20% research time for 2024 was accepted!! I will continue w/ the #NorKorr #EdvardMunch #Correspondence project, i.e. publish the Data Paper & start a larger study on mapping #DigitalScholarlyEditions at the #UniOslo & greater Oslo area! Excited!!
I will also continue working on preparing the Danish #EthicaComplementoria for publication; I have some funds for an assistant to help with creating a proper #TEI document based on #Transkribus transcription.

I will talk about my #NorKorr #NorwegianCorrespondences project today at the #BookHistory lunch seminar. My wonderful friends and colleagues at the @BBAW @telotadh have created a project-based search on the @correspSearch website. Check it out! Nearly 9.000 letters from NorKorr with another 2.400 in the pipeline to be released soon: https://correspsearch.net/en/search.html?t=norkorr

Slow day at the Dept. I continue working on my talk for tomorrow's book history lunch seminar. I will talk about my project #NorKorr #NorwegianCorrespondences! I added up some numbers, and we now have metadata from more than 10.000 letters in our collection! I am so proud! This project has no funding. I hired a developer for 3 months part-time to help harvest metadata from two (legacy) digital editions.

@stefandumont @AndreaRapp @correspSearch Eben! Ich hatte beim #SkeivtArkiv #QueerArchives nachgefragt, die haben natürlich viele Briefe in ihrer Sammlung, zeitgenössisch. Der #DataPrivacy Aspekt ist da ganz wichtig, daher für #NorKorr zZ nicht verwertbar, leider. Eine andere tolle Briefsammlung ist im Archiv der Arbeiterbewegung in Norwegen. Aber ganz konkret arbeiten wir jetzt mit der privaten und akademischen Korrespondenz von #ChristopherHansteen, dem norwegischen Astronomen und Physiker!

I'm procrastinating writing a grant application (it's just not my day today...). Instead, I'm doing #NorKorr stuff, w/ manual #HTR layout edits of private letters from Norwegian astrophysicist #ChristopherHansteen to his wife, #JohanneCathrineAndreaHansteen. The National Library of Norway holds a collection of digitized private letters. A transcription exists but hasn't been published. I'm training the #NorHand #HTR model on them to increase accuracy & transcribe the rest of the correspondence.

It itches in my fingers to tell you that we have another big NorKorr delivery of correspondence metadata for @correspSearch waiting to be released! Can you guess what it might be? #NorKorr #NorwegianCorrespondences #Letters #CulturalHistory #Metadata
