In COGITCH (COgnition Guided Interoperability beTween Collections of musical Heritage) research is done into the elements in music that are best remembered, the so-called 'hooks'. In order to determine where these hooks are located, use is made of crowdsourcing. With the results a search engine is built with which the catalog of Sound & Vision and the Dutch Song Database of the Meertens Institute can be searched.

COGITCH is financed within the NWO CATCH programme.
