LINKED DATA R&D
Information architecture, data modeling, UX research and general consulting for the Digital Archive of Artists' Publishing, a non-profit initiative by Banner Repeater (London), Wikimedia UK and a team of subject domain experts, artists and creative technologists. As lead consultant on the technical aspects of the project, I worked with a team of developers and visual designers to establish a self-hosted Wikibase instance for the backend of the archive, as well as a custom frontend for access and browsing. Key responsibilities included running workshops to develop a participatory design and development strategy, documentation of the resulting data model and information architecture, scoping user workflows and drafting wireframes for the visual designers. Additionally, I contributed to the documentation and educational materials published on the project website.
