- Additional information
- The McDonald Institute monograph series from the University of Cambridge is a highly regarded series which is published Open Access (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0). The content of this chapter (which has been peer reviewed by external reviewers) was originally prepared from an invited presentation that the author gave to an international seminar on digital authenticity organised and hosted by the National Museums of Scotland. Building on pre-existing, peer reviewed and published work that looks at the influence of intentionality and modes of production on the perceived authenticity of digital replicas (including the outputs of the author’s AHRC ACCORD project), this article expands these arguments to examine less considered, but equally influential factors: authorship, ownership and transience. This chapter was prepared at the invitation of the editors. The invited authors are considered leading theorists in this field internationally. The foreword was provided by Professor Sarah Kenderdine (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), who specifically references my contribution as a key starting point for discussions in this particular area of research. My original contribution is part-based on fieldwork from multiple projects in the digital preservation domain on which I have been CI or WP Lead. This chapter was a key influence of the subsequent commentary in Current Anthropology: Baker, F., Champion, E., Gartski, K., Jeffrey, S. and Kuzminsky, S. 2018 Commentary on 3-D Virtual Replicas and Simulations of the Past: ‘Real’ or ‘Fake’ Representations? By Galeazzi, F. in Current Anthropology, 59 (3). ISSN 1537-5382
