Frustrations of a non-scientist in a scientist world All I wanted was to make a silly little doodle of the typical "story of the universe" graph. I now have 0 doodles and 4 pages of notes * Agressively grabs scientist by the collar * you. need. standardized. naming. conventions. #scicomm #sciart

Every part of my profesional brain is screaming that I should be doing an illustration for Artemis, it will do way better in rrss, but I have a current obssesion with dark energy, will do worse in rrss but will do great for an existencial crisis. #Scicomm #Sciart

Remember the poster inspired by stained glass? Well, I decided to actually try making a mini version, in real glass. I haven't cut or solder glass in my entire life. Maybe starting with 32 pieces was a bad idea. I forgot I could’ve just painted glass instead. It’s awful. I love it. #sciart #art

Honestly what do you mean that I have to present in the meeting after the Phd in astrophysics?! That was a very nice research on neutron stars and gravitational waves Mark, anyway, here you can see my drawing of a tardigrade wearing an astronaut helmet, it will be good for engagement #sciart

Centipedes are highly misunderstood creatures, so I’m really happy to hear multiple requests on drawing those beautiful danger noodles (leggy version)! Their “fangs” are actually a pair of modified legs, and those curly antennae are my favorite parts

Yay! Thanks to Laura Tran for interviewing me about my unusual career on The Scientist - I think "Don’t wait for permission. If you love it, keep at it." perfectly summarizes all the 'advice' I have to give 😅 www.the-scientist.com/neurocomics-... #scicomm #sciviz #sciart

Made this after a trip where I found myself staring at stained glass in old churches for way too long. Not sure it’s finished, but I needed to let it go for now. Open to thoughts, might revisit it later. It’s about the black hole that formed after two binary stars collided #scicomm #sciart

I’m glad so many people have found my “capybara method” for how to write alt text and image descriptions helpful! However, I know conflicting access needs exist and not everyone can write their own #AltText, so here’s an ongoing thread of tools that can help. Inclusion in thread ≠ endorsement

An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.” Credit to Puzzle agency, original information from Veronica With Four Eyes and veroniiiica dot com
