Welcome to this five-credit course in Photofake

This course places itself in the tension between manipulated photographs and photorealistic images that are not photographically generated but look like photographs. The course discusses photorealism versus photography, various types of photographic manipulation, and today's extensive practice of verifying photographic information. All participants develop their own project, which, among other things, will be presented as a short TED-style talk. We have four workshops lasting four academic hours, all in Forskningsparken, seminar room 207. Canvas will be published soon—more information to follow. Liv Hausken
