Let’s talk about investigation “Forensic analysis of digital data”

Place:Zoom

Digital data forensics is an area of ​​forensic science dedicated to the application of methods on digital evidence derived from digital sources to facilitate the reconstruction of events. Currently, digital data analysis benefits from the ease of collecting and sharing information through social networks, which provide more details through different lenses and points of view. This information can be vital to understanding events such as terrorist attacks and natural disasters, but it is also challenging, as there is the possibility of capturing irrelevant information. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out data cleaning and filtering tasks.

Viernes de Ciencia y Sociedad: “Tecnopolítica del transporte urbano en Lima Metropolitana: el compromiso por la automovilidad”

Place:Aula A601

The problems related to urban transport in Lima seem to be getting worse. In public discourses, the explanation tends to focus on informality and lack of planning, which will be responsible for transport chaos. In this presentation, the emphasis will be on another aspect, which I call "commitment to automobiles." Far from being the product of the absence of the State or of planning, the commitment to automobiles consists of a consensus among those who have the power to make decisions and to influence them so as not to affect the ease of moving around the city by car. I propose that this commitment is the product of two factors. The first is a political economy that directs resources toward car-oriented infrastructure. The second is technopolitical, and has to do with the knowledge and ideas that are mobilized around transportation to rationalize or justify these investments. In this presentation, I will focus on this last aspect. Exhibitor: Matteo Stiglich Labarthe, Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences department. Date and time: june 9 at 5pm.

Viernes de Ciencia y Sociedad “Redes de producción y distribución de cerámica Inka y Local: Una mirada desde el Chinchaysuyo y el Colesuyo” 07/07/2023

Viernes de Ciencia y Sociedad “Redes de producción y distribución de cerámica Inka y Local: Una mirada desde el Chinchaysuyo y el Colesuyo”

Place:Aula A601

From geochemical data from ceramic analyzes generated by Laser Ablation associated with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS for its acronym in English) we have examined ceramic manufacturing patterns of the local and Inka Polychrome styles from two regions of the Inca empire. The results achieved allow us to reveal that the local production system was not transformed by imperial expansion. On the contrary, the potters continued to elaborate the ceramic styles prior to the arrival of the Incas, and incorporating Inka styles made with raw materials already used in their ceramic production. Based on the results achieved, the adaptability of local potters is demonstrated by experimenting and/or learning paste recipes to produce Inka shapes and designs. Finally, the research allows highlighting the role of potters as participants in Inka imperialism both through the elaboration of Inka ceramics and local ceramic styles. Exhibitor: Emily Baca Marroquin, Department of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences and  Sofia Chacaltana Cortez - Researcher and professor at the Department of Humanities, UARM Date and time: july 7 at 5pm.
