Information technologies have made possible many unexpected changes in the field of cultural heritage and performing arts; they continue to provide dy- namicandexcitingmediaplatformsthroughwhichnewpossibilitiesperpetually emerge. This wave of changes has been particularly significant for the field of the performing arts, where a wide range of possibilities for digital exploitation continue to present itself to users, constantly opening the doors to new and as- yet-unexplored synergies. Many technological developments concerning content access and fruition, the renovation of digital libraries, the creation of new ways for media entertainmentand the facilitationof educationareproposed, applied, and utilized by the public. ECLAP is a best practice network co-funded through the ICT Policy Sup- port Programme of the European Commission. ECLAP aims to stimulate ex- ploitation of new ICT technologies for digital content access to performing arts resources, and to provide guidelines on the adoption of metadata standards for indexing, searching, and browsing content. ECLAP is providing access to per- formingartscollectionsandarchivesbymeansofsocialmediatoolsandcontent aggregationtoolsderivedfromresearchactivity.Theperformingartsinstitutions involvedareprestigiousandleading inthe field. An ever-growingfund ofdigital resources is becoming accessible through a common, multilingual, easy-to-use ECLAP service. The ECLAP metadata are progressively being made available on Europeana, a European multilingual online collection of millions of digitized items from museums, libraries, archives, and multimedia collections. The ECLAP conference aims to function as a forum in which progress- oriented individuals and institutions find a place to collaborate and present results. It also aims to provide an overview of the state of the art for perform- ing arts digital collections within the framework of the following best-practice themes: digital library tools, education and research facilities, IPR issues, cul- tural heritage and technologies. The ECLAP 2013 event comprised a set of sessions and panels conforming to our standard of excellence. We hosted a keynote speaker line-up consisting of some of the most salient voices in the field: Luis Ferra˜o, European Commis- sion — DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology — Creativity Unit; Bertha Bermudez, Researcher, performer and project manager education at ICK Amsterdam; David Giaretta, Director of Alliance Permanent Access to the Records ofScience in Europe Network;Amanda Rigali, Director, Combined arts and touring, Arts Council England. VI Preface The ECLAP 2013 conference international committee selected only the best proposals. Thus, only the 40% of the submitted contributions were accepted as full research papers. ECLAP 2013 featured more than 25 presentations coming fromseveralcountries:USA,Israel,UK,TheNetherlands,Italy,Spain,Germany, Hungary, etc. The conference is open to researchers, professionals, industries, institutions, technicians,andpractitionersintheareaofperformingartsandinformationtech- nologies, media-based entertainment, technology-enhanced learning, intelligent- mediasystems,acousticsystems,culturalheritage,anddigitallibraries. TheECLAP2013conferenceaimedtobeaplaceinwhichinstitutions,indus- tries, the European Commission, and Europeana family projects in the areas of cultural heritage could find a wealth of opportunities for networking, debating, and sharing ideas and best practices. As General Chair, it is a pleasure to express my gratitude to the keynote speakers,thededicatedProgramCo-chairs,committeemembers,andconference support staff who contributed to making ECLAP a success. We hope that you will find the conference proceedings interesting. Paolo Nesi Message from the Organizing Chair This second international ECLAP conference in Portugal was an exciting and stimulating experience for both the organizers and the participants. The event served as confirmation that the ECLAP community, after almost three years, continues to grow steadily in strength and quality. Interestintheprojectishighandgrowing:wereceivedstrongproposalsfrom manyexcellentcandidates,andwerethusforcedtoturndownsomeveryworthy and interesting submissions. All the talks presented during the conference confirmed to us our belief that an interdisciplinary approach to the application of IT to the performing arts is both challenging and necessary. It is difficult to meaningfully study all the ramifications of the sometimes- troublesome marriage of IT with performing arts. On the one hand, the risk is that humanities scholars may ignore, overlook, or oversimplify technical issues; on the other hand, IT professionals are not necessarily aware of the unique problems and needs facing the performing arts. OurhopeisthatgatheringssuchastheECLAP2013Conferencewillfurther promotedialogbetweenspecialistsinthedifferentfields,andsparkfruitfulfuture collaborations. Other stated goals of the conference are the promotion of networking and knowledgetransferbetweenthevariousECprojectsbelongingtotheEuropeana family. I wish to thank those who enriched the ECLAP 2013 Conference through their contribution, as well as Springer for the publication of this volume. Finally, I wish to thank all those who made the conference possible through their dedication and work.
