The Canadian Advisory Committee for Memory of the World (CCMoW) is delighted to host a one-day virtual symposium of key stakeholders in intangible cultural heritage (ICH), archives, and research. Our goal is to foster an open, collaborative conversation on
 the theoretical and practical issues associated with the acts of “making, keeping, and using” ICH and the resulting documentary products, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous.<o:p></o:p></p>

<b>For centuries, traditional Western-oriented archival practice has focused on the collection and preservation of tangible physical documentary sources. Digital technologies have changed this dynamic, increasing opportunities for flexibility, decentralization,
 and collaboration. But as tools and technologies change, the boundaries of archival practice – and the very concept of archives – are changing. Intangible cultural heritage (ICH) lives in this boundary area between the static and the fluid, and at the intersections
 of different cultures and communities.<o:p></o:p></b></p>

 realm of custodial control. However, the resulting documentary products – photographs, films, audio-visual recordings, etc. – do come into archival custody. At that point, they are often defined as static and complete – a condition that may be at odds with
 the inherently flexible nature of ICH.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
