Although we have been a little quiet of late, work has been continuing at fever pitch on the Estoria project. The launch date of 15th December is fast approaching…
The Impact activities are now in full swing. Enrique is working hard on preparing the digital exhibition and teaching materials. This week we hope to have a first draft of the early versions of both and we will have a look at the prototype of these in the HRI in Sheffield on Friday. The transcription desk is also now at the prototype stage. Fiona is hard at work preparing indices and related tools which will allow a host of exciting ways to access the Estoria.
Polly and Christian are working flat out to get the reader’s edition of the Estoria ready. In this they are aided by Ricardo, who has left us for the other side of the Atlantic but who continues to work on the project.
Aengus is busily collating our versión primitiva and has now made it about half way.
Today we welcome our newest team member: Lauren Brinsdon. Lauren is an Undergraduate Scholar here at the University of Birmingham and is working on the Impact activities with Enrique.
Expect more updates from Lauren and from other team members about the fast-approaching conference shortly.
