In this session we will look at complexities arising around the preservation and management of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) and traditional knowledge (TK) and traditional cultural expressions (TCE). We will think about how intellectual property rights systems can create tension or conflict when applied to traditional cultural expressions and their digital reproductions. We will also consider the epistemologies and value systems that inform the preservation, digitization, treatment and reuse of ICH and TCE in material and digital environments. We will discuss some specific initiatives, including Nomad and Palestine Open Maps.

- No exercise (Reading Week). But do think about the projects we have shown and discussed, and look in detail at the geographic and name entities, changing names and historical identities, and how these are recorded in digital form.
