external scientific collaborators
The INDIGO core team encompasses young and experienced, male and female researchers with different nationalities working in natural sciences and digital humanities. Furthermore, INDIGO has contacted a range of international scholars that all agreed to exchange graffiti insights voluntarily:
- Doris Tophinke, the driving force behind INGRID
- Alex Hale, archaeologist
- Susan Hansen, social psychologist/visual sociologist
- Sabina Andron, architectural historian
- Martin de la Iglesia, art historian and information scientist
- Sam Merrill, cultural sociologist
- Jacob Kimvall, art historian
- Erik Hannerz, sociologist
- Ilaria Hoppe, art historian
Covering various humanistic fields, these experts will provide diverse suggestions for community engagement and for creating the graffiti thesaurus plus standardised metadata set. Moreover, they will be invited to the graffiti symposia and receive early access to the INDIGO database, allowing INDIGO to collect feedback as the database gets built.
