What would Melbourne look like if the sea levels rose by 5 m due to polar ice melting?
Music set to a whimsical video - it started as a dream ...
This is a short video that won first prize in a competition run by the Victorian Branch of the Australian Institute of Physics in 2021. The idea is to guess what is the invisible force. This was put together out of bits and pieces of video scenes I already had, during one of the many COVID lockdowns in Australia. It is aimed at secondary school students as an introduction to this particular force of nature ...
My flight from London to Australia was delayed for a day and so, on a suggestion from a friend, I visited Little Venice, which is a region of canals just behind Paddington Station. I had never been there before and was surprised to find this little aquatic oasis in the middle of London. As I had left my video camera at the airport hotel, I shot these scenes on my iphone and then later edited them together.
More majestic than any cathedral, it was not erected in homage of a creator but as an ear to the universe, listening for the breath of galaxies, the heartbeats of pulsars and the echoes from creation itself. Video created from a GoPro and an iPhone with the music aimed to capture the magnificence and awe of this beautiful homage to scientific endeavour.
This is a short video showing the Astronomical Society of Victoria radio telescope situated in the countryside about two hours north of Melbourne. At 8.5 metres in diameter it is dwarfed by the Parkes Telescope at 64 metres - but still, we’re hoping to do useful science with it.
Researchers at the University of Stuttgart Germany led by Mario Hentschel have developed a method for creating amazingly bright colours using nanoscopic holes in silicon. These holes resonate under exposure to light. Mario used them to create a microscopic version of Wassily Kandinsky’s painting “Improvisation 9”, currently hanging in the Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart. This is a short music-video showing where Art Meets Science.
A collection of scenes taken down at the beach combined with music.
A dream-like animation of the Great Melbourne Telescope, being restored by volunteers and Museums Victoria. This will be placed in GMT House near the Botanic Gardens in Melbourne as a working museum piece.
A short video of the Mount Hotham ski fields in Australian Alpine region in Victoria, taken while I was staying at The Drift chalet late July 2023.
