Welcome to Civil War Animated \n\nIf a picture is worth a thousand words, a good animation is worth ten thousand. After reading book after book about the US Civil War and finding only complicated maps with dotted lines and dashed lines crisscrossing the pages, we decided to depict the key naval and land battles using animation technology.\n\nRecent note from a high school history teacher: "I've been going through all of them and for an American History class and Civil War elective, they are PRICELESS! It's exactly what I try to cover in PowerPoints, except you can actually see what happens!"

Photo Tampering Throughout History

Photo Tampering Throughout History

Photography lost its innocence many years ago. In as early as the 1860s, photographs were already being manipulated, only a few decades after Niepce created the first photograph in 1814. With the advent of high-resolution digital cameras, powerful personal computers and sophisticated photo-editing software, the manipulation of digital images is becoming more common. Here, I have collected some examples of tampering throughout history.

To help contend with the implications of this tampering, we have developed a series of tools for detecting traces of tampering in digital images (contact me at Ma'at Consulting for more information about our services).
