Abstract	This paper introduces a corpus of primary sources associated with the Elizabethan composer-poet Thomas Whythorne, including musical and literary works, autobiographical and historical texts, and images. Besides their value for humanities scholars, they provide a circumscribed data-set around which the development of hypertext resources for interdisciplinary research can be explored. After outlining the ways in which these materials might be used in digital form, the design challenges they pose for computer scientists are considered, particularly regarding the representation of complex interrelated multimedia objects and the navigability of the resultant hypertext. The broad-ranging content of these sources necessitates collaboration between scholars in different sub-disciplines (including classical studies, literary studies, musicology, religious studies, social and political history, inter alia). This project thus encourages the employment of 'crowdsourcing', with scholarly commentary and metadata added by numerous contributors to form a constantly evolving hypertext. The use of digital technologies to create collectively authored and curated research materials raises additional design issues. The need to build quality-control mechanisms (e.g. peer-review of contributions) into the infrastructure of the resource is discussed, as is the necessity of creating a user-friendly front-end, enabling scholars without specialized IT skills to contribute efficiently.
