Brainstorming on Web technologies and the pipeorgan DB Achille Peternier
Towards a FP7 ? A new international platform for all – Lesson learned from previous (national) experiences – Consensus – Using modern technologies ? Definition of standards – Categorizing instruments – Storing the information
Towards a FP7 Historical aspects IT support - How to access/store/modify data - How to present the content
Standards ? Create a group of experts to define a universal categorization standard for pipeorgans – The world is full of standards: ISO, JPEG, PDF, etc. ? What information to collect and how? ? How robust it is? – Test the standard against worst-cases
Standards ? A standard allows us to: – Easily share data and concepts ? Organ builders and software designers working under the same roof – Automatic data processing: ? Define a file format ? Build compatible DBs ? Build adapters to export/import to/from the standard – Future generations will complain and improve the standard (iteration) ? ? Make it extendable

Timeline ? A location ? A series of events – Deltas over the previous state ? F(location, date) = sum(all events) – Add, sub, migrate, destroy, …
Timeline St. Martin Mendrisio, CH 1523 1630 1712 1890 Today
Timeline St. Martin 1911 1771 Mendrisio, CH 1523 1630 Moved to: City Museum Zug, CH 1712 1890 Today
Timeline City Museum Zug, CH 1900 1911 1990 From: Modified: St. Martin Mean-tone Mendrisio, CH temperament
Idea ? …a different approach?
How to?
How to? ? Two static elements: – Location ? Churches, organ builders’ workshops, concert halls, private houses, etc. – Time ? A specific moment ? Two dynamic elements: – Bricks ? Can be anything: a stop, a kind of keyboard, a kind of temperament, an organ body, a location within the church, etc. ? Are stored in a tree – Actions ? Are the glue among atoms, locations and time. ? Can be add, remove, relocate, modify, destroy, etc.
How to? Location: Action: Atom: St. Martin Organ Mendrisio, CH Add (1st Oct. 1771)
How to? Organ Organ Organ

How to? Before: Action: After: Organ body Organ body remove Regal Meantone modify Equal St. Martin Museum relocate St. Martin Museum Organ Organ
How to? ? By hand? No way!
How to? ? IT support: – On data acquisition: ? Wizards, GUIs – On data validation: ? Automatic error detection – On data visualization: ? Optimize view according to the content – Zoom, timebar, multimedia content, etc. – On data processing: ? AI
Brainstorming on Web Technologies and the Pipeorgan Database
Geolocalization ? Adding GPS coords : – Can be inferred from street/building names – Visualization over a map City Museum Positiv
Geolocalization ? Adding GPS coords : – Geographical-based queries ? Where is the closest meantone instrument to my home? – Regional statistics ? What is the density of Regal in the Paris area?
WWW ? Web-oriented infrastructure – à la Wikipedia ? Different user levels (from visitors to content providers) – A single application for everything ? No need for MS-Access – Typical Wiki-like content: ? History of the building, stop descriptions, famous organists who played, etc.
WWW ? Distributed infrastructure – One server per country – Synching data overnight ? Backup ? Performance
Extra features ? Web-site to brochure
Extra features ? 2D barcodes
Extra features ? Mobile app – GPS – Organ as tags
Extra features ? Mobile support for data gathering – Simplified data input ? Multimedia ? GPS coords ? Following a protocol ? Automatic verification – Corollary tools ? Temperament recognizer?
Thanks!
