The Film Building:

Wanna watch Dawkins' "God Delusion" presentation? Go on, it's well done and also quite funny.

Category: The Film Building

A few months back I had a chance to be involved with Dawkins' visit to Vancouver, and here we had a chance to record his speech. Not a bad way to spend an hour on this particular day. Actually, Richard's...

Things to avoid when speaking publicly - the video.

Category: The Film Building

So I'm pleased to show off a goofy little video I prepared using the great suggestions made at a previous post (Hopefully, the start of a definitive list of things to avoid at all cost when speaking publicly.). It's being...

Sizzle. Enjoyable but more dazzle perhaps?

Category: The Film Building

A few days ago, I had a chance (with other ScienceBloggers) to check out Randy Olson's new flick, Sizzle. Now let me first start by saying that I'm hardly a movie aficionado - my favourite movie is still Star Wars,...

Types of Biological Modification - the Breakfast of Champions cartoon version.

Category: The Film Building

I doodle a bit, and sometimes, it has this Breakfast of Champions look to it - which to be frank is deliberate, since I think it's a great visual style, especially for the purpose of teaching. Anyway, since, I'm playing...

Do schools kill creativity?

Category: The Film Building

I have to say that I really enjoyed this presentation by Sir Ken Robinson. Well worth the twenty minutes. Curious about comments too from you educators out there. Ben, do you think this guy is a contender for our advisory...

McCabe & Mrs. Miller (Ode to Altman)

Category: The Film Building

Some stuff on the esteemed Robert Altman, who died on Monday at 81. And let's call it culture, not chatter. (Even though it isn't a war, per the Sb super category title).

Not sure if it's the best science show, but it's a good one (plus a bit about why ducks always have the best lines)

Category: The Film Building

The question humming around ScienceBlogs at this particular moment is about Science TV, so I thought I would pipe up for one of me and my kid's current favourite shows: Peep and the Big Wide World....

Kaboom! Beauty on a reel via the three R's

Category: Video links (archive.org samples, for example; Youtube.com; others...)

Here is an example where an artist, perhaps unknowingly even, is consuming less. A short animated movie, using only the reused, recycled, or (at the very least) the very old, that shows how aesthetics can be achieved through any means....

Ultimate Fighting Between Scientists of Note (The Movie)

Category: The Art/Science (Non?)Divide Building

Well, it looks like units of our Psyche Strainers are shipping robustly. So much so, that we are perhaps close to thinking about bankrolling a possible movie venture. In this respect, we're thinking specifically of adapting a screenplay from a...

My God! Can it be that no one has mentioned Star Wars yet!?

Category: The Film Building

Scienceblogger question is asking the following: What movie do you think does something admirable (though not necessarily accurate) regarding science? Bonus points for answering whether the chosen movie is any good generally.... I'm surprised no one has mentioned Star Wars...
