Join us for a night of humor, media literacy, and creative deception at our February After Dark. In a twist on "Two Truths and a Lie," three comedians challenge your gullible gauge to spot the one true news story.
Take inspiration from historical spirit photography to create your own deceptive imagery. Learn how Victorian photographers faked ghostly images, then try your hand at crafting your own illusions.
MIT's Rand Lab will showcase interactive tools to help you spot fake news in real-time.
Drinks from Marzae Wine and Philippine snacks from Lola's Pinoy Pastry will be available for purchase.
Come for fun, stay for creativity, and leave with a sharper eye for truth in today's media.
This event is co-hosted with MIT's Knight Science Journalism Program.
