Paradata and Transparency in Virtual Heritage By:Anna Bentkowska-Kafel,Hugh Denard,Drew Baker Published on 2012 by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd. Computer-Generated Images (CGIs) are widely used and accepted in the world of entertainment but the use of the very same visualization techniques in academic research in the Arts and Humanities remains controversial.

In this, she draws upon a wide array of thinkers: Freud, Derrida, Said, and Bernal, among oth...
