after much ado, I have finished writing about bridging the @nfdi4culture and @NFDI4Chem knowledge graphs

📖 https://cthoyt.com/2025/10/07/bridging-culture-and-chemistry.html

the demo was to link experiments in Chemotion electronic lab notebooks (ELNs) that annotate the type of instrument used to gather data (e.g., microscope) with depictions of that instrument in paintings

a big milestone for @NFDI to demonstrate federation across consortia!

Which reminds me to share this: I was today years old when it finally dawned on me to do this: fresh command for #DOI links. Absolute muppet. #digitalobjects

Just a heads up about this recently published paper: 'Toward a definition of digital object #reuse'. The work contributes some excellent intellectual framing for 'reuse', what constitutes 'reuse', and helps us contemplate how we might better measure it! Some nice conceptual work here by Liz, Ali, and their colleagues. Tres bon! 👍

#UNIDROIT has adopted legal guidance on private law transactions involving the holding, transfer and use of #DigitalAssets as collateral. It's intended to guide States in making their private laws consistent. It's not intended to cover regulated activities, though the UK Law Commission consultation on #DigitalObjects goes there. Differences in approach, include whether 'control' should be a distinguishing criteria for the purpose legal status or treatment: http://sdj-thefineprint.blogspot.com/2023/05/dealing-with-cryptoassets-unidroit.html

First International Conference on FAIR Digital Objects

Successful management, exchange and interpretation of an ever-growing tsunami of digital information and knowledge will depend on highly automated methods dealing with combined data. This will require artificial intelligence but also robust and informative ways to store and disseminate data and metadata. FAIR Digital Objects (FDOs) promise to provide the needed framework. FAIR is about making data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable both for humans and machines. FAIR digital objects have shown key capabilities to simplify and scale the use of data across domains, increase trust in data and ease the handling of high volumes of information. Now widespread consensus and collaboration is needed. The 1st International Conference of FAIR Digital Objects brings together for the first time, key technical, scientific, industry, and science-policy stakeholders at this scale with the aim to boost the development and implementation of FDOs worldwide. This conference collection explores two of the most urgent themes in constructing the FDO framework: research in structuring the knowledge domain and how to facilitate practical work, and practice in the design and building of FDO-consistent infrastructures.
