HyperImage Miscellaneous Projects

This dataset contains the results and representations of different HyperImage research projects created and conducted by pilot users during the phase of HyperImage software development: the pilot projects "Brand" on the grand fire of Hamburg, the communication study "Medienfigurationen" (both: Leuphana University Lüneburg) and "Chlaenius" and "Taxon" (on entomological classification, both: Humboldt University Berlin). The HyperImage software was developed to document the highly complex interlinked image and text material to facilitate the digital reconstruction of artworks. HyperImage implements the pictorial footnote on the image, meaning that precisely marked image details can be linked via hypertext with other image details, image collections and texts. The image details are intellectually identified and marked, i.e., by authors, not by programs.
