Thirsty Science
Curious whether a science "thirst trap" might capture imaginations, I began producing bi-weekly videos explaining animal behavior while hula hooping in April 2021. Like all of us, I'm affected by what social media does to our attention, and how the commercialization of Instagram is shaping our choices, so I embarked on a thoroughly tongue in cheek series playing with using those forces to deepen a collective curiosity about our co-travelers on planet Earth.
