This presentation will survey the infrastructure, design, and critical applications of an online publishing platform named Scalar, presently in development by the Alliance for Networking Visual Culture. Based on best practices formed through the creation of interactive scholarship for the University of Southern California’s Vectors journal, and with a foundation in Semantic Web technology that links the platform to partner media archives, Scalar features the affordances of templates while remaining flexible to support a range of scholarly disciplines and approaches.
