Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Spencer3a6e09c2eefd9ca96adbf188c38f589304cf3ce2 The content in Capturing O'Neill has been crowd-sourced from a wide variety of archives, libraries, enthusiasts and private collectors. The research behind biographic information has been assembled by many of those involved, as well as by students in Scott B. Spencer's Irish Music graduate course. The site has been curated by Dr. Scott B. Spencer (University of Southern California) with input, advice, review and perspective from:
Dr. Aileen Dillane (University of Limerick) Dr. Michael O'Malley (George Mason University) Dr. Daniel T. Neely (Irish Echo) Dr. Sean Williams (The Evergreen State College) and with hosting and material support from the Ward Irish Music Archives in Milwaukee, and archival and material support from the Irish Traditional Music Archives in Dublin.
As we have assembled and reviewed the dedication pages throughout this site, we have also brought the perspectives of our own academic fields and body of research to these assembled materials. In many ways, this is the beauty of Digital Humanities projects—that materials can be viewed through different academic lenses and presented in a multiplicity of formats, all with links to outside sources and organizations. And it can be changed and updated as more is learned or new approaches are discovered. The following pages are the reflections of the curators—on process, discovery, and perspectives:
