Fantastic news that work inspired by our research has reached such a wide audience. 18,000 visitors is incredible and still a month to go!

18,000 Visitors so far and a month to run! So Blue Matter, the 4 channel video I made for the CANDO project in Newcastle, in 2020, has new life and a new audience. The World is in You exhibition at the Kunsthal Charlotteborg, Copenhagen, DK is receiving a great deal of attention.
