News and events aggregator
Novice (News) gather cultural news from the RSS feeds of more than 350 sources: the websites of Slovene cultural producers and organisations, cultural blogs as well as all cultural sections of Slovene media on the web. The first part of the news is shown with an adjacent image and the link to the original site.
Dogodki (Events) are aggregated from the various sources such as the former Kulturnik, producers' online calendars and ticket sales providers. The database contains over 5000 venues throughout Slovenia.
Background
The first cultural events aggregator was launched as Kulturnik.si as early as in 2005 by Ljudmila - Ljubljana Digital Media Lab for the M3C Multimedia Centres Network of Slovenia. Kulturnik was a pioneer project-in-progress, an open source database covering daily cultural events around Slovenia and "fed" by the regional multimedia centres.
The information has been aggregated from several regional web portals maintained by the members of the network and from individual events organisers and producers (for example, Gromka and K4 clubs, Kinoteka and Kinodvor cinemas, Ljubljana Festival, KUD France Prešeren ...). The former Kulturnik database covering cultural events has become a part of the new Kulturnik in 2014.
