EXPLOITATION & DISSEMINATION OF RESULTS (months 21-24). BLOG. 'Thomas Moore in Europe', available at
https://blogs.qub.ac.uk/erin/(se abrirá en una nueva ventana). ERIN published 48 posts, attracting 6000+ visitors. Topics include the circulation of Moore's musical works in Europe; Moore's travels in Europe; ‘how to research’ at certain European libraries; podcasts of European music. ERIN used the blog to 'soft launch' outputs on 31/08/17. RADIO DOCUMENTARY, “An oriental romance: Thomas Moore's Lalla Rookh,” was completed (RF gained experience in production through secondment). It aired 10 September at 18:00 on RTE Lyric. Music recordings are podcasts on the project website: www.erin.qub.ac.uk. A sample recording from the documentary was released as a blog post. PRESENTATIONS. The PI and the RF delivered 2 public seminars (QUB), participated in a Lalla Rookh Symposium (Dublin), and delivered the plenary lecture at the annual conference of the SMI (QUB). An associated concert was recorded (radio documentary; podcasts for website). The plenary lecture forms 2 podcasts on the blog. Texts for these presentations (and visual material) are available through the QUB research repository: pure.qub.ac.uk/.../sarah-mccleave. PODCASTS On 17/05/17, the PI directed a show featuring European music to Thomas Moore's Lalla Rookh (podcasts for website). In June 2017 we recorded QUB Music students performing a few of Moore's Irish Melodies in different arrangements (podcasts for website). A sample will appear on the blog. ONLINE EXHIBITIONS. On 31 August we published (at
http://omeka.qub.ac.uk(se abrirá en una nueva ventana)) 4 electronic collections and 4 electronic exhibitions in the openly-accessible OMEKA platform; over 200 Cultural Heritage Objects are available in an accessible and searchable format. DATABASE CATALOGUE. By 02/17 the RF and PI had created 50% of the records for this resource, which was then handed over to the commercial developer. The development process was more complex than anticipated; handover to QUB took place in 10/17. Currently, a 'data dump' of the catalogue is found at: pure.qub.ac.uk/.../sarah-mccleave. ERIN WEBSITE (www.erin.qub.ac.uk). This links to the blog plus the OMEKA collections and exhibitions. It has all podcasts and the database catalogue. The website will be released in 03/18, when the catalogue is nearly complete. We will offer a virtual launch for the website (with video demonstration of the resources), through the project blog. BOOK of essays, working title 'Thomas Moore and the Global Marketplace', co-edited by the RF and PI. We've collected and done a first edit of 50% of the expected chapters. Updates on progress may feature on the blog.
