SUMMARY:Evidence\, Expertise\, and Automation in Forensic Reconstruction
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Information Studies invites faculty\, staff\, and students to its Information Studies Colloquia. \n\n\n\nPresented\, Researched\, and Written by Dr. Stacy Wood\, UCLA \n\n\n\n3D laser scanning technology has been used in forensic analysis and virtual crime scene reconstruction for at least a decade. While rendering a reconstruction involves a combination of automated tools and expert intervention\, the reconstruction collapses and stands in for myriad forms of forensic science\, many of which do not represent robust scientific consensus despite their relative ubiquity across the criminal legal system. The models produced shift both the theoretical and practical forms of expertise within the courtroom and present challenges for the long-term ability to revisit evidence. This talk uses this technology as a jumping off point to think about complex media objects that simultaneously function as legal evidence\, media spectacle and public record.

SUMMARY:Fighting Flames: Information Infrastructures in Trying Times
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Information Studies invites faculty\, staff\, and students to its Information Studies Colloquia. \n\n\n\nPresented\, Researched\, and Written by Dr. Emily Drabinski\, Queens College\, City University of New York \n\n\n\nSince 2021\, efforts to censor materials and programming have compounded ongoing disinvestment in public institutions\, leaving libraries struggling to fulfill their missions. As protesters disrupted storytimes and library board meetings\, library workers\, patrons\, supporters\, and advocates have organized to fight these assaults on the right to read. This talk asks what gets lost when resources are wholly directed at the fire in front of us\, and what our responsibilities are to build boring things at the end of the world. \n\n\n\nNo RSVP is needed to attend.

SUMMARY:Building an Equitable Community-Engaged Research Agenda in IS
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Information Studies invites faculty\, staff\, and students to its Information Studies Colloquia. \n\n\n\nPresented\, Researched\, and Written by Dr. Michelle Caswell\, UCLA \n\n\n\nThis workshop draws from the emerging area of community archives to present principles and protocols for ethically conducting community-engaged IS research with (rather than just about) minoritized communities. Based on a white paper collaboratively authored between community archivists and archival studies scholars\, the first half of the workshop will address the current state of academic research on community archives\, its impact on communities represented and served by such organizations\, and ways to envision and enact more equitable relationships moving forward. The second half of the workshop will give participants a chance to apply the principles and protocols to their own research projects in IS\, and brainstorm about designing more equitable community-engaged research projects in IS moving forward.

SUMMARY:Knowing as Moving vs. Moving as Knowing
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Department of Information Studies invites faculty\, staff\, and students to its Information Studies Colloquia. \n\n\n\nPresented\, Researched\, and Written by Dr. Susan Leigh Foster\, UCLA \n\n\n\nThis presentation builds off Dr. Susan Leigh Foster’s recent book\, Knowing as Moving\, by assessing the difference between claims that moving is a form of knowing as distinct from the hypothesis articulated in my book that it is necessary to move in order to know. She will endeavor to review some of the literatures she used to build this theory as well as consider how such a thesis upends the colonial duality of “mind” and “body.” \n\n\n\nNo RSVP is needed to attend.
