A new horizon for Timor-Leste
No full textThis image originally appeared in the 2015 Research student photography and image competition held to celebrate National Science Week (Aug 15-23). Blurb: "I took this photo in Dili, Timor-Leste, which is the case study for my research thesis.This photo depicts Timor-Leste as I see it at present; a beautiful country with a dark cloud that sits above the land. While Timor-Leste is peaceful and safe to visit, my research has revealed a negative image, derived largely from past media coverage of occupation and civil unrest, still hangs over the country. But image is not fixed and my research has shown that for Timor-Leste a destination marketing strategy can shape the international perception and generate new, positive associations. Thus this photo is optimistic as it appears the cloud is lifting and there is light on the horizon. Timor-Leste is a nation moving into a new and hopeful future.
Swinburne at the nanoscale
No full textThis image originally appeared in the 2015 Research student photography and image competition held to celebrate National Science Week (Aug 15-23). Blurb: The Swinburne logo captured in this image is 10 times smaller than the thickness of an average human hair. It was created on the surface of silicon using the peerless state-of-the-art nanofabrication capability present at Swinburne. The resolution of the technique is so high that an observant viewer can make out the individual pixels that made up the original template image. Creation of the structure was a complicated process that involved bombardment with an ion beam to draw the mask pattern that can still be seen as a thin veil overlaying the logo, as well as etching in plasma to remove silicon everywhere around the letters. An object this small can only be seen through an electron microscope, and it is exactly how this image of the slightly tilted structure was obtained
Thoughts of a Researcher
No full textThis image originally appeared in the 2015 Research student photography and image competition held to celebrate National Science Week (Aug 15-23). Blurb: This image is of my ‘brainwaves’ recorded by an electroencephalograph (EEG). In my research I am looking at the processes that the brain goes through while making an aesthetic judgment while recording the EEG. These wavy lines are the data that I record and analyse. There are 38 channels here and each is from an electrode at a specific spot on the scalp. The electrodes are placed over five areas of the brain: frontal, central, parietal, occipital and temporal. These channels are recording extremely small electrical signals made by the brain – or more precisely, the cells in the cortex. The apparently random waves seen here are that of the brain while it is processing everything from thought processes, smell, sight, touch, taste, and auditory information all at the same time
