TRUE will be exhibiting at the Swansea Science Festival on Saturday 5th November! The festival will be held at Swansea's National Waterfront Museum.
The Science Festival will run over the course of the weekend (5th and 6th November) with a range of science shows, talks, workshops and tours exploring the theme of ‘Frontiers’.
TRUE project will be hosting an interactive exhibition on the importance of perspective when trying to understand "what happened" using video evidence. Come and see, just how deceptive certain camera perspectives can be...
More information on the exhibit will be posted after the festival!
It is brilliant to see hands-on exhibits like this at the festival, especially around how misleading camera angles can be when interpreting video evidence. Most people just assume video shows the absolute truth without considering perspective bias, so demonstrating that visually at the National Waterfront Museum must have been eye-opening. Balancing complex topics with uni workload isn't easy, and while students often look for help on assignments online to manage tight deadlines, interactive events like these make learning the underlying concepts so much more engaging than just reading textbook theories. It really makes you pause and re-evaluate how objective visual evidence actually is in legal contexts.
