上週,故事碰撞器 舉辦了兩週年慶典,並收集了大量 I AM SCIENCE 的故事。雖然我本應出席並做報告,但我不得不取消,因為我們仍在瑞典的新家安頓下來,而且旅行費用也接近天文數字。但是科學電影製片人 Mindy Weisberger 製作了一部非常精彩的 5 分鐘電影,採訪了幾位在科學領域有所建樹的人。這是一個很好的例子,展示了他們今天所走的各種不同的道路。誰知道他們,以及我們其他人,明天會走到哪裡……特別感謝所有鼓起勇氣在舞臺上和電影中,以及在紙上、部落格和推文中講述自己道路的科學家們!

關於 I AM SCIENCE kickstarter 的狀態的簡要更新。我已經外包了封面 artwork 的製作,並且正在撰寫引言。我也正在與一位書籍版式設計師洽談,以使其在視覺上更具吸引力。我對此感到非常興奮,而且它進展順利。我很高興接受更多的故事,如果您有曲折離奇的科學之路想要撰寫,請使用上面的聯絡方式與我聯絡。一如既往,我們將樂意提供保密和匿名服務。
