ABSTRACT
In offering to make available what was previously not so, revelations rely on and perpetuate contrasts between inner/outer, knowledge/ignorance, fact/fiction, etc. This chapter investigates splitting. Its main aim is to trace how the splitting between a ‘this’ and a ‘that’ generates and is generated by vestings, becomings and figurings, and thereby how splitting allocates notions of responsibility, credibility and culpability. The topics addressed include stories behind the story of the rise of WikiLeaks, investigative efforts to authenticate art as well as the contestation of photographic evidence.
