I cannot express how excited I am to publish tomorrow the full conversation I had with @mcleish_t Tom McLeish. He lays out a stunningly beautiful vision of science as a healing of broken relationships, weaving ecology, redemption, and the most rigorous science together.

@mcleish_t I am grateful for your thinking on science, wisdom and the arts. @ISCAST_Oz thank you for providing an intellectual space for me to continue to think about these things.

Really enjoyed my chat with Paul Matthews from the Christian Education podcast. https://t.co/bdK59xMAuR How do we help students engage with science in the classroom? How can we nurture their creativity and make them excited about it all? How to foster a love for our environment?

This is fun. Emergence, determinism, recreating the universe in model form, bone flutes and, of course, soft matter physics: “exactly what it says on the tin, and very often it is in the tin…” Super!

Truly honoured to get the final 👍🏼 from the redoubtable @NickRKenyon @BBCRadio3 Record Review Purcell FQ. But Nick is entirely right: so much excellence from colleagues past and present. I've spent most of my life thinking about this glorious work. On to the next generation!
