DAO: Digital Art Ontology Project
http://dao.cim3.net

An Invitation to Collaborative Knowledge Building (Please Distribute)

This is a call for collaboration in the design of a standard (in the
dynamic sense of the word) digital art ontology. If you are interested in
issues of how concepts in media art intermap with neighbor or upper
structured knowledge domains, then please contribute your expertise
toward what is intended to be a (re)useable knowledge base resource for
our community. Knowledge domain experts must contribute toward
knowledge organization efforts (digital libraries, semantic web,
concept representation and navigation) in their field. Now is the time;
it's either specify or be specified.

DAO is an open ontology initiative. We plan to focus both on the
methods for online collaborative ontology building, as well as our
content goal
