AusStage LIEF 7: The international breakthrough (ARC LIEF project administered by Flinders University) (2021–2022)
Abstract:
The aim of AusStage LIEF 7 is to enhance the world's oldest and most extensive national dataset on live
performance. The project expects to maximise research arising from the global flow of data now accessible
following the adoption of the AusStage schema by Norway, the UK, and potentially, China. Expected outcomes
include improvements to the AusStage user interface; adaptation of the AusStage schema to support longitudinal
studies of the impact of government policies; and development of AusStage immersive virtual reality theatres to
popularise delivery of performing arts research. These innovations should benefit Australia by reinforcing
AusStage¿s position as an international leader in the provision of digital research infrastructure.
