Hello everyone! 👋 I'm Daniel, comms manager at @gbif@biodiversity.social. You may already know me from @daniel@social.falafel.monster (my personal server). Here on biodiversity.social (of which I am also an admin), I'd love to connect with anyone in the #GBIF community (and beyond) and talk about #biodiversity, data and how to best communicate its value to the world #introduction #intro #scicomm #science

Anthorite can be found in lunar & cometary rocks, but Sphalerite gets my vote with cool optical/electrical properties & its role in art history as main zinc ore. Zn has been used in brass & bronze for centuries. Since the 18th century it was used to make ZnO pigments & etching, plates. 🧵1/2 #MinCup26 #scicomm #artHistory #minerals

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2019 I built a life-size Protoichthyosaurus for Lapworth Museum (University of Birmingham). It was partly built in my workshop and partly open to public view in the museum. Here's the built Part 3. #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Dinosaurs #Birds #Reptiles #Palaeontology #Paleontology #Ichthyosaur

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... Hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees KEVIN! In 2019 I created a copy of my life-size Ichthyostega model, for Reading University's Cole Museum. They named him Kevin. #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Dinosaurs #Birds #Reptiles #Palaeontology #Paleontology #Ichthyostega

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology... In 2020 I illustrated LOCKED IN TIME, written by Dr Dean Lomax. Here's my "Portrait of malignance" painting, depicting a Telmatosaurus with an ameloblastoma on its lower jaw. https://cup.columbia.edu/book/locked-in-time/9780231197281 #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Dinosaurs #Birds #Reptiles #Palaeontology #Paleontology

It is exciting to see snippets of Surviving Earth coming out from Impossible Pictures (see: https://www.instagram.com/picturesimpossible/) One of the clips released features Arctodus, the "short faced bear", here is my official design sheet, which was used by the production team. #Art #Painting #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #DigitalArt #Illustration #Palaeontology #Paleontology #SurvivingEarth #ImpossiblePictures #Arctodus #ShortFacedBear #TheDinosaurs #Dinosaurs

If you're doing science communication, you should be doing it accessibly as possible. If you think science matters to people and that's why you communicate it - disabled people are a subset of the set people. If you don't know how to create accessible communications, and are unsure of the information you're finding online, there are plenty of disabled people here on Mastodon. Ask. Images, video, audio, palette...these have accessibility aspects to learn. #SciComm #Science #Accessibility
