Extent

4 websites in 1 archived website

Scope and Contents

The website contains a biography of Adler, a list of his compositions with PDF files of descriptions of the works, a calendar of his events, information about his projects, a list of his recordings and writings, as well as reviews of him and his works. His compositions draw on the traditional music of Laos and Thailand as well as his interest in mathematics to form cross-cultural hybrid concert pieces. He is best known for his work with the khaen, a traditional instrument from southeast Asia. Soundcloud audio files were not captured due to technological constraints. Capture of site began in August 2016. This description is based on the June 2017 capture of the site.

Accruals

New site crawls are accrued semiannually.

Appraisal

Robots.txt (a piece of code designed to limit crawler activity within a website) was ignored.

Crawl was limited to domains and subdomains of http://www.christopheradler.com and adlerforum.blogspot.com in order to remain within the collection scope and data constraints.

adlerforum.blogspot.com, an external site, was included due to its contextual value to the site that is the focus of this crawl.
