Science New Wave

So thrilled to share that my film Interfacing has been selected for the Science New Wave Festival XVII opening in New York 18 October!


This year’s festival is an eclectic mix of films blending science with art, experimentation and personal expression. Labocine is the home of Science New Wave and it has been wonderful to be part of its ecosystem which is combination of platform, magazine, portal and archive.

Interfacing was made in response to cell membrane research by professor Margarita Staykova at The Biophysical Sciences Institute, Durham University. In the work, I ask scientists about unexpected outcomes of their experiments and the roles of chance and creativity in their research. 

A huge thank you to creative coder Chris Ball for his wonderful work on the project; we have collaborated on some great projects over the years. And thanks to Durham University for hosting my residency.
