abstract: This project involves digitizing audio cassette recordings gathered by
retired NYU Abu Dhabi Professor Walter Feldman during research for his book, Music
of the Ottoman Court (1996, repr. 2024). Dr. Feldman is the leading authority
on Turkish classical music, and his book is the standard work on the subject.
Dr. Feldman’s recordings include never-before-heard audio materials—lessons, private
concerts, and public performances— featuring prominent Turkish classical musicians
Necdet Yasar, Niyazi Sayin, Ihsan Özgen, and others. Digitizing this collection
is crucial for preservation of this music and to make it accessible to a wider
audience. This project emphasizes the intercultural connections between Greeks,
Turks, Armenians, Romanians, Hungarians, Arabs, and Sephardic Jews within the
Ottoman Empire. The project will transfer these recordings to a digital format
and exhibit them on a publicly accessible website, accompanied by detailed cataloging
and metadata creation to facilitate research and exploration. By making these
recordings available, this initiative not only preserves a crucial part of musical
history but also celebrates the complex tapestry of relationships that characterizes
the music of the Ottoman court and its enduring legacy in shaping the cultural
identities of the region.

### Abstract
This project focuses on a 1786 property map of the French colony of Saint-Domingue (Haiti) dedicated to the comte de Vaudreuil, a prominent Paris-based art collector whose father had governed the colony. This map records the parceling of land around Cap Français, where many of the island's most lucrative sugar plantations were located. It is inscribed with surnames, each belonging to a plantation owner. Strikingly, they include some of the highest-profile members of the Paris art world at the time. While these names may be visible on the surface, the deeper histories of the connections they reveal remain unexplored. We propose to create an interactive, digitally enhanced version of this map with an ambitious interface comprising text, image, and linked data that allows users to discover stories and pursue further research. Our project will “remap” the Paris art world in two key ways. Although the 1786 map illustrates crucial if unknown links between colonial networks and art in metropolitan France, it also shows the contribution of unnamed individuals—notably enslaved laborers—whose lives were inextricably linked to the buying and selling of art. We aim to visualize this network of people, objects, and places and publish an open data set and metadata standard that encourages other scholars to build on our research while interrogating mapping as a process. In so doing, we hope to profoundly shift views of the eighteenth-century art world.
