#SeeFurther
Café Scientifique sessions at SbC's #SeeFurther festival were what started me livetweeting, so RIP the man that created them (see RT)

Good frugality at @summerscience: staff t-shirts printed in @southbankcentre typeface presumably left from #seefurther last year :) #SSE2011

Suspect some features relate to MS Research stand at #SeeFurther. Photo Fuse looks very clever: take several shots, pick fav bits of each!

And to my regular followers, I hope my #SeeFurther tweets haven't been too irritating :) (Because normally my tweets are infrequent *cough*)

On our way home from #SeeFurther for the final time now. Thanks to all involved @southbankcentre & @royalsociety for such an enjoyable week!

Can't fault 1 exhibitor's project name & URL. European Extremely Large Telescope, bigtelescopes.org.uk. Know what you're getting #SeeFurther

Having a last look round the #SeeFurther Royal Society summer exhibition. Think I just found myself on display :( http://twitpic.com/22fx89

Digital sheet music scrolls past: http://twitpic.com/22fsi7 Sight-reading=important requirement of the shift-working musicians! #SeeFurther

#SeeFurther This Flood Tide thing is amazing - it is all actually being generated live onto digital sheet music by Thames tidal readings! :O

Just met the man behind the @seefutherfest Twitter feed, who approached me to see if I was @bitoclass :) Nice bloke, obviously! #SeeFurther

#SeeFurther Here it is! http://twitpic.com/22fm7q 6hr piece of music was at its most energetic at 5pm, when Thames' rate of flow was highest
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
That's over now so off to the riverside to find Flood Tide, an all-day music performance based on the tidal cycle of the Thames. #SeeFurther

http://twitpic.com/22feen Not sure why they're projecting space imagery behind the swimming creatures demo - expected sea :) #SeeFurther

#SeeFurther Amusing Q&A session now. Adult engineering Qs interspersed w/kids' Qs like "Have you ever put one in a tank with real penguins?"
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
#SeeFurther They are engineering a robotic elephant's trunk, just because they found the idea irresistible. This is the coolest company ever

Nose and tail help with steering but most of that is also done by the wings, which are angleable - if that's a word. #SeeFurther
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
AirPenguin's out again. Speaker confirms its wings are its only form of propulsion, in case you'd seen it and wondered! #SeeFurther

Watching video of *amazing* robotic water penguin. Don't worry about endangered species - this lot'll engineer them all back ;) #SeeFurther

http://twitpic.com/22f4n3 AirJelly casts a shadow of itself onto a picture of itself. Confusing scene :) #SeeFurther
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
Watching the Air Jellyfish swim round the RFH auditorium. "The predator of the AirJelly in this environment is air conditioning" #SeeFurther
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
This stuff is amazing. They've also developed a whole gang of automated waterbound jellyfish which communicate among themselves! #SeeFurther

Also, that performance of Icarus was "family-friendly" so the scientific explanation intro bit was pitched at my level ;) #LLF10 #SeeFurther
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
Enjoyed Icarus - very glad to have won tickets as we weren't planning to see it but it was excellent. Thanks @litweeter! #SeeFurther #LLF10
November 16, 2024 at 5:28 AM
Yes! RT @seefurtherfest: Enjoyed the flying penguins at #SeeFurther? 5:30pm: Festo AirPenguins and AirJelly Q+A Session http://bit.ly/9udNBc

Just remembered to try Remove Background as demoed by Microsoft at #SeeFurther today. Managed 15mins' Photoshop work in about a minute. Ace.
