The Imagine Science Film Festival

I'm a little sad to be missing the Imagine Science Film Festival, now
wrapping up in New York. It is a very interesting effort to bring
visual artistry and storytelling to bear on the problem of
communicating solid information about science. I've seen and enjoyed
many of the shorts in the festival that have been posted on Vimeo.

I hope to get a chance to see some more of the work that has been
featured at the festival.
