Dr Beryl Pong (UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Affiliated Lecturer) and her team at the Centre for Drones and Culture will be at the Imperial War Museum (IWM North) to show a VR version of their immersive film about the psychology of drone warfare, Beware Blue Skies (from 30 October – 2 November 2025). This is the last run of the film, which ran previously in IWM London and IWM Duxford. The film is inspired by eyewitness accounts of drone violence, and it probes how aesthetics and technological mediation can be used self-reflexively to tell nuanced stories about remote warfare.

Beryl was recently interviewed about her research and the film in a Guardian News article about the psychology of recent unexplored drone sightings across Europe.
