Parallax:'Parallax is defined as an object appearing as if it is positioned differently when it is looked at from different angles or different positions'.

I originally struggled with this concept and didn't see the relevance to the seminar subject. However, it is linked with perspective and the way we look at things. In the seminar, we were told to play a game of twenty questions with our partner. However, the questions had to be pre decided so therefore, you could not ask a question in relation to the last answer. It was hard to guess what the object she was thinking of was, The next task, we were allowed to ask questions as we went along. This means, we can use previous answers to construct our next question and the object was therefore easier to guess.
The aim of the task was to look at solving the issue from two perspectives. Both involved asking questions until we could understand what the object was but both approached it in a different way. We can apply this to research methods.
