Investigating Historical Imagery for Open-Source Researchers

This week Bellingcat researchers Annique Mossou and Foeke Postma joined the Bellingcat Stage Talk stage. Both researchers have a passion for unravelling historical secrets and have recently published articles relating to old mysteries. During the talk they discussed these pieces of research (linked in this description), expressed their reasoning as to why investigating old photographs should be seen as important and revealed some of the tools and methods they used for their research. The talk was hosted in the Bellingcat discord server on Thursday 19th November 2023. To join the server, download discord and visit www.discord.gg/bellingcat . Music courtesy of Artlist.
