@cassininazir

patricia, ana rita, sam cc lina

just a quick hallo as this week i start making my way back to dallas after a couple of really productive months in france ( and the visit with you is a ++)

i am hoping that you might have been in touch with Lina Moon who is taking over from stephanie brisendine on the grants from the kickstarter

lina- maybe we can meet when i am in dallas week of aug 2 and go over the plan

patricia/ana rita/ sam- i assume you will want the $1000 grants each to go into your personal accounts so we will eventually need the bank account info etc- but lina will get that request to you

we should also put together a schedule for what we are doing for the next few months until your book comes out and we do the work around that

anyway hoping you are having a good summer

Hi Roger,

Thank you for such a rich day!

Meanwhile and just related with the sound for the beginning/end of each podcast channel, check out this initiative below. Roger, you should add the sound of trees growing! We'll try to make a composition of sounds of neurons - "the sounds of curiosity" :)

---------- Mensagem encaminhada ----------

Bernie Hobbs, of the Science Unit at Australian Broadcasting Commission says:

I’ve started a new segment on Radio National and online called the Sounds of Science.

It’s like the old school mystery sounds done on radio everywhere, but it’s all sounds from scientists. The episodes recorded so far are:

  1. The sound of a plant dying of thirst http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2015/05/21/4239360.htm
  2. The sound of a single atom http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2015/05/28/4244126.htm

I’m trying to gather as many varied science-related sounds as I can.

I’ve got

peacock spiders drumming, X-ray fluorescent spectroscopy,
lyrebird imitating the sound of a chainsaw etc, a slinky doing the Star Wars laser SFX and some actual micro robots playing the STAR WARS theme song.

BUT I’d love it if you could get the word out to your scientists and communicators that I want their sounds and their stories of what they were trying to find out and how they recorded them!

It’s a great way of getting obscure/non-news science into the media – the two so far are from work done 20 and 10 years ago respectively!

Please give the following info with the sound:

  • What it is
  • Who recorded it
  • Why!
  • How it was recorded
  • What’s the research/activity it’s part of
  • If it was recorded a while ago, what’s the status of the research/activity now?

Please contact her direct.

We have forward movement on this - updates will now take place in the Tracking List in the CD International Student Grants folder to avoid redundancy
