The group is involved with various outreach activities. In 2010, we contributed
to the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition. Other activities include making movies
to communicate our research and explain science, and this year we even developed
an iPhone game which aims to illustrate the formation of ice crystals.
Below you can see several things: information about our stand at the Exhibition, as well as photos,
and links to various movies made by the group.
Although the Exhibition is over, you can still see our videos, vote for your favourite
"Water Girl" in our online poll, and download our "Waterfall" iPod Game (note that the competitions
associated with this that we ran during the Exhibition are now closed).
Please enjoy a selection of photographs from the event!
We all use water everyday but how many of us know about its mysterious and unexplained special properties?
Using the latest high-tech computer simulations we are trying to understand water and ice on the nanoscale.
Come to our exhibit at the Southbank Centre in June to see super-cooled water freeze instantly,
see ice sink in water, and try melting ice crystals in a simulation on one of the world's fastest
supercomputers.
Sincere thanks go to our sponsors, the organisations that provide us
with funding and resources, and
others who have helped out. The credit for our display
belongs to the organizers.
