Here’s something you can be getting on with when you should be working etc.
Getting a shrinking feeling?
It’s actually a little experiment the missus has been running right under my nose. And a fine demonstration it is too, of the scientific principle of ‘DEHYDRATION’.
I’m sure you’ve already figured it out. Peel an ordinary apple, carve a face on it, put it in the fridge. Two weeks later – Mr Evil Applehead.
Enjoy!
Since the mid 1980s, I've worked in university and industrial research, as a manager and editor in technology and environment for an international industry association, and held senior business development, strategy, and procurement posts in industry. I hold a PhD in chemical engineering from Birmingham University, an MBA from Warwick University Business School, and an MSc in Science Communication from Imperial College. In 2008, I left industry to focus full-time on my passion for science and technology, and to share that enthusiasm with others as a freelance science communicator. I live in London with my wife Erin.
