Abstract:
This article introduces the content enrichment techniques that have been explored and combined in the eContentPlus VARIAZIONI project1. The project has proposed a content metadata model for musical assets based on FRBR, which has been integrated with a standard content management system. Wizards for manual metadata feeding have been developed within the content management system. In addition, it supports social annotation, and includes automatic enrichment based on the sound properties of the contents and on smart clipping from available Internet resources, such as Wikipedia or Yahoo.
