The digitised 1926 and 1927 diaries of Irish composer, Aloys Fleischmann (1910 – 1992) are now available at fleischmanndiaries.ucc.ie. The site was recently launched at the College of Arts, Celtic Studies and Social Sciences, University College Cork (UCC) by Róisín O’Brien on behalf of the Digital Arts and Humanities Program, with Dr Ruth Fleischmann as the guest of honour.
The digitisation of the diaries was undertaken as my thesis project for a Masters Degree in Digital Arts and Humanities at UCC. It was carried out with the collaboration of the Fleischmann family and guidance of a number of international practitioners.
