Brett Kromkamp's GitHub Profile
You've reached Brett Kromkamp's GitHub profile.
I contribute to and maintain Contextualise, TopicDB and a couple of other open source projects. I also have several published Python packages on PyPI. Expect many of my projects to be related to the combination of linked data and knowledge graph-based applications.
Core technologies I work with, include:
- Apache TinkerPop and related graph technologies including Gremlin, JanusGraph and Apache Cassandra
- Resources Description Framework (RDF) and related semantic web technologies including SPARQL, OWL and SKOS
- Topic maps standard to describe complex relationships between abstract concepts and real-world (information) resources
- Python programming language
Contextualise Experiments
Knowledge Graph-based Content Management
Combining the RDF data model with Contextualise, a topic maps-based knowledge management application.
Reveal.js-Based Knowledge Paths
Extending Contextualise to include a reveal.js-based presentation mode to supplement the existing knowledge path feature.
Mixing Art and Code to Build Engaging Web Experiences
Development of web content models, concepts, creation processes and tools: mix art and code to build interactive, engaging web experiences
Storytelling With Interactive Visualisation of Semantic Events (The Story Technologies Project)
Developing a web application —for storytelling purposes— that allows a user to navigate between a collection of narrative events. Each event has an accompanying 3D environment with participants and items that can be interacted with. Interactions include (but, are not limited to) displaying more information about the selected object and superimposing the selected object over the user's view of the real world (that is, augmented reality). Narratives are Contextualise topic maps.
