1:26:12 The Camera at War: 170 Years of Weaponizing Photography, with Hilary Roberts All forms of visual media are vulnerable to being manipulated or ‘weaponized’ in the context of modern conflict. However, the consequences of manipulating photographs are potentially far-reaching and long-term. In recent years, advances in digital technology have led many to question whether photographs of war and conflict can ever be trusted. The conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as other world events, have lent urgency to this debate. Drawing on an incredible range of imagery from the Imperial War Museum’s vast collection and other major archives around the globe, expert curator Hilary Roberts presents a new perspective on the role of image manipulation in this field over the past 170 years, exploring the consequences for our understanding of historic and contemporary conflicts. Join Ron Haviv in conversation with Hilary Roberts as they discuss the complicated relationship between conflict photography and the ‘truth’. The discussion will explore the application and legacy of photomanipulation techniques in conflict photography and the myriad ways in which layers of meaning can be added, erased, or changed completely.

The VII Foundation 2:22:03 Open-Source Intelligence - An Investigative Journalism Workshop Open-source intelligence (OSINT), publicly available data sources used in the verification of information and events, is integral to the work of many investigative journalists. Increasingly hostile or inaccessible reporting environments, and the weaponisation of disinformation, have intensified the need for verifiable source information to ensure the authenticity and integrity of independent reporting. In this special extended online event, we examine the application of open-source intelligence strategies within media and justice contexts. This two-hour workshop will introduce a range of practical OSINT tools, consider accessibility and online safety, and examine case studies, including long-term operations within closed states and recent high-profile events across the U.S. and Europe, where OSINT tools have enabled critical forensic analysis and reporting. Join David Campbell in discussion with a panel of expert guests; Documentary filmmaker and investigative journalist, Sara Creta, whose research focuses on the intersection of emerging technology and human rights; Davide Piscitelli, Advanced Researcher at Forensic Architecture, a research agency based at Goldsmiths, University of London; and Francesco Sebregondi, architect and researcher specialising in digital investigation, particularly the use of visual and spatial analysis to document violence and human rights violations.

The VII Foundation 54:20 Arturo Soto – The Psycho-Geography of a British City How can photography challenge stereotypes of a well-known city? Is it possible to picture the politics of a place? What are the costs and benefits of asking these questions from the position of the outsider? In this event, Mexican-born photographer Arturo Soto discusses these themes in his work about the British university city of Oxford following the controversial “Brexit” referendum that led to the UK leaving the European Union. Soto’s work has been published in his book “A Certain Logic of Expectations”, which is described as proposing a counter-narrative of Oxford. Drawing on psycho-geography, and using an interplay of words and text, the work reflects on the contested relationship between visual representation and the history and myths of a particular location. The VII Foundation 54:26 Book Club – Ed Kashi, The Cali Years The Cali Years is a 25-year collection of Ed Kashi’s archive from 1979-2004, from his time spent living in California. This significant period marked the development of a college graduate into a renowned visual storyteller. This motley collection of images contains everything from family life to celebrities, from magazine assignments to in-depth personal projects. What was originally intended to be a small zine became a fold-out hand-bound collectible book. This collaborative project made in Ed’s studio with Brenda Bingham and Michael Curry will be produced in a limited edition of 100. In this event – hosted by Ziyah Gafic – Ed, Brenda, and Michael discuss the purpose and production of this book.

Kris shows images he made during his grant year, as he explores systematic unfairness in America – and talks with Sara about his critique of the ways racism, capitalism and power have shaped the U.S. They both share ideas about what goes into writing an American Aftermath grant proposal, and the kinds of projects that might be a good fit for the grant. Sara talks about the judging process and what judges look for. The VII Foundation 1:03:13 Hyperlocal Journalism with Andrea Bruce After spending much of her adult life covering war zones around the world, photographer Andrea Bruce recently returned to her home in Pamlico County, in eastern North Carolina. Andrea established Down in the County, a regular newsletter with stories and event listings, described as a celebration of the people of Pamlico County and their way of life. Down in the County is an example of hyperlocal journalism, which focuses on local stories on a small scale that are often not covered by regional or national outlets.
