    Considering Evidence in Art Fraud
    SLOGGETT, R ; Chappell, D ; Hufnagel, S (Routledge - Taylor & Francis, 2016)
    Securing the evidential link between the work and the artist who is purported to have produced it requires a rigorous analytical approach; one that not only accepts particular evidence that may support the assertion of authenticity, but which can also contest evidence that is not correct. Such an approach is by its very nature multidisciplinary, often bringing together knowledge of art history, the art market, cultural materials conservation, chemistry, law and policing. What constitutes evidence of authenticity is generally based on considerations of provenance, art historical context, including facts about the artist and scientific enquiry. Building the chain of evidence for art authentication is a complex and carefully constructed activity that ensures that works can be legitimately, and verifiably, linked to the artist who is purported to be their source.

    Into Speyne to selle for Slavys: English, Spanish, and Genoese Merchant Networks and their Involvement with the 'Cost of Gwynea' Trade before 1550
    Dalton, HG ; Green, T (Oxford University Press, 2012)

    In 1541, Roger Barlow, an English merchant who had traded with Spain's Atlantic settlements from Seville in the 1520s, presented Henry VIII with a cosmography containing his personal account of the Rio de la Plata, inserted into an English translation of the 1519 edition of the Suma de Geographia by Martin Fernandez de Enciso. Despite the fact that both men had been involved in the buying and selling of West African slaves, Barlow translated Enciso's short description of the slave markets in Guinea without comment. This chapter explores how the trading network of English, Spanish and Genoese merchants Barlow belonged to had traded in slaves and associated products, such as pearls and sugar, since the 1480s. In doing so, they were instrumental in linking the ‘Guinea of Cape Verde’ to the wider Atlantic world.

    Methodological and ethical concerns associated with digital ethnography in domestic environments: participation burden and burdensome technologies
    Nansen, B ; Wilken, R ; Kennedy, J ; Arnold, M ; Gibbs, M ; Warr, D ; Waycott, J ; Guillemin, M ; Cox, S (Palgrave Macmillan, 2016)
    This chapter reflects on methodological and ethical issues arising in a digital ethnography project conducted in domestic environments. The participatory aims of the methodological approach required participants to produce a series of videos exploring domestic digital environments. The videos were then uploaded using an ethnographic software application. Early in the project it became evident that researchers had limited control over important aspects of the technology, and that the technology itself was having disruptive effects in households. Further, although the study was designed to be engaging and playful for participants, the tasks of producing the videos was perceived by some participants as requiring onerous levels of creativity and digital media literacy. The chapter discusses these methodological and ethical issues, and how they were largely resolved.

    Overcoming the tyranny of distance? High speed broadband and the significance of place
    Kennedy, J ; Wilken, R ; Nansen, B ; Arnold, M ; Harrop, M ; Griffiths, M ; Barbour, K (University of Adelaide, 2016)
    This paper examines how HSB is configured in the production of place through the services provided by the National Broadband Network (NBN) across 22 technologically and geographically diverse households by drawing out properties of connectedness and distinction. In this paper, which reports on preliminary data from a longitudinal ARC-funded research project, we are particularly interested to examine how HSB intersects with the other spatial elements that make place meaningful for our participants. We take the standpoint that the uptake and appropriation of a technological innovation, such as HSB, is a process – not an event. We seek to examine the dynamics of this process, what HSB means for the ‘tyranny of distance’ and what HSB means for the significance of place.
