SEED, a very strange, but beautifully animated short.

I’m studying the bacteria living in (or infecting, depending on how sick you are and your definitions of those words) the respiratory tract. One of the projects I’m working on is called MOSAIC and is looking at last year’s swine flu outbreak, and I have lots of samples of various types from people who were hospitalised during the outbreak and gave their consent to be involved in the study. I don’t do any of the sampling, just receiving anonymous pots and swabs of secretions, so I volunteered to be a control, and out of interest decided to record the respiratory sampling.
Film contains tasteful scenes of tongue and nostrils, mild suspense and bad editing. No researchers were harmed in making this production, but one did get watery eyes.

I love their games, little works of art with nice puzzles. Here are the others: Amanita Design

Make Games at the Science Museum
I know Coney and Hide and Seek are cool, and Blast Theory sound very cool, so this is a must.
Like science and games and museums? Then you *must* go to the @sciencemuseum’s Game Jam on 30th Sept! http://t.co/M8DFmiNO
