(re)programming: Accountability
<p><strong>How to Tell</strong></p> <p>Eyal Weizman is a Professor of Spatial and Visual Cultures. He founded Forensic Architecture, where he helped develop a methodology—counter-forensics—for analyzing cases of human rights violations around the world to provide new evidence against official narratives in international human rights courts. Counter-forensics is a response to structural limitation—such as not having access to the crime scene—and makes openly available what is concealed from the public eye. Counter-forensics takes all the time needed to scan and interpret enormous amounts of data and images, trying to find clues that are already in the public domain, but which we don’t know how to look at and interconnect. Secrets can be deconstructed by following the traces they leave in the visible world, harvesting what is out there, but nobody is looking at.</p>
