I’m on TV
March 6, 2006 3:36 pm UniWell not yet, but I will be. We had a small camera crew visit my lab this morning to film my experiment in action! It’s for a TV documentary about explosives of some sort, and part of it is about how anti-matter cannot be used. So they came to film our particle trap which holds a small particle in air using electric fields – and I was in the shot pretending to do stuff. It’ll either make me look boffin like or be rather embarrassing depending on how they edit the short piece of film – i.e. I was pretending to do some data collection on a laptop after loading the trap. However, I was just tapping the mouse-pad whilst a short movie was playing in Window’s Media Player. Oh well. Not sure what the program is called or when it will be broadcast – but I believe it’s for the National Geographic channel. They said they’ll email me when it’s going to be broadcast.
Anyway, back to the real world – just over 2 weeks left of proper university (lectures/project) and then it’s over – (except the exams bit). Still haven’t secured anything for after university – so I might be “unemployed” for a while…
