We have resuscitated the podcasts. There are now three different types. More about that on the podcast page. In the meantime Jack Stilgoe cranked out another pamphlet this week about the relationship between science and people. Here he is lucidly talking through his public engagement experiments that bought groups of people together with scientists to discuss the implications of nanotechnology. The report argues that public engagement in science means that scientists need to answer difficult but important questions, and is the route into a more open discussion of the politics of science. There is a video on youtube about some of his work earlier efforts to connect nanoscientist to the public . Download the podcast (12MB) here or subscribe here. Or just listen on the embedded player below (if you  can see that that jigsaw puzzel piece you need quicktime).
