Sit back and let us serve you a carefully curated selection of science snippets, ranging from thoroughly explained arguments to thought-provoking cinematic experiments. We’ve scoured the globe to bring you the best that science shorts have to offer, demonstrating how science surrounds us in unexpected ways. 

From whalebones to sun rays, and even the origin of cinema — this program includes: 

Sunspot 
The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima unintentionally creates a bond between two scientists. This engaging exploration of forest fires and quantum physics is the result.  

Dust is a whale, is sunlight 
A passionate man reassembling the bones of a whale serves as the starting point for this existential poem. 

Stampfer Dreams 
This playful animation is just as experimental as the inventor it portrays: scientist Simon von Stampfer, the father of the Stroboscopic Disc.


TALK When is science art, or art science? How would you tell a scientific story through dancing? Join us this afternoon to find out! Embodiment researcher Vicky Fisher (Max Planck Institute & Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) integrates her passion for dancing in her research. Together, we will explore both how humans make sense of dance and how dance can be used to make sense of ourselves and our world. This interactive talk will include live musical reflection by food policy researcher Daniel Polman (Wageningen University).
