The British Science Festival hit Brighton in September 2017, and I was asked by Brighton Museum & Art Gallery to lead on two events as part of the programme: Scientifically Late: Breaking the Glass (in collaboration with Sussex University) and Science Uncovered, a family free day. It was wonderful to see the space entirely transformed by some innovative programming, including a projection installation in the 20^th Century Gallery that used smart object technologies to bring a murmuration of starlings to life, a chance to participate in live research into the relationship between fine art and the senses and a workshop enabling children to make musical instruments that mimicked the sound of insects. With an attendance of over 1500 over the course of the two events, I’m hoping we may have swayed some science sceptics, or even inspired the scientists of the future!
