Hello all,
With apologies for the late notice, the graduate curatorial program I direct is hosting a teleconference today from 11am to noon EST on how the digital age has changed the standards of evidence and global accountability. For a customized link, please register beforehand at:

Legal evidence, like other forms of information, has become increasingly electronic. Shelley Lightburn of the International Court of Justice examines how the digital revolution is impacting the judicial process on cases from genocide in Africa to war crimes from the former Yugoslavia in the latest teleconference in UMaine’s Digital Curation program.
There are interesting parallels between the art world and international courts, for example in the use of "exhibition copies" for evidence and the use of emulation to animate older software.
Lightburn is the Head of the Archives, Indexing and Distribution Division at the International Court of Justice in the Hague, and an alumna of the Digital Curation graduate program. After her presentation, participants will have a chance to ask her about the impact of electronic data on the concept of "original' and "authenticity."
