I arrived at 10.00 am at the Synchrotron. There was by chance a film crew already here waiting to interview collaborator Dr Mark Boland and myself for an art / science documentary. I hadn’t even signed the contract yet. We conducted the interview, signed contract, then took the film crew into the highly-charged and conductive LINAC. The LINAC is the Linear Accelerator, the ‘heart’ of the Synchrotron, and probably the most good looking bit also. By chance the accelerator had just gone down so we could get access to this area – normally it’s too full of invisbly deadly particles.
Off to a dynamic start.
