10 Days to Go! - Here is a two-minute version of the "Making Of The PHD Movie". Enjoy!
Art vs. Science - The countdown continues... This is a fun interview done by Robin Ince, a well-known comedian from the UK famous for his work with Ricky Gervais and for the "Infinite Monkey Cage" podcast he does with Physicist Brian Cox. Listen in while you work as we chat about making science look fun, art vs. science and how society views academia.
Soundtrack - The first bonus in the countdown to the PHD Movie release is the PHD Soundtrack. Click below to listen in:
You can also watch this video excerpt from the "Making Of" special feature in the DVD that focuses on the movie's musicians:
I'm really proud of the work that Music Director Melanie Guittet did in putting the soundtrack together for the PHD Movie. Not only was she a grad student in Nanotechnology (!) at the time, but she managed to find great musicians and bands in and around campus to contribute and she worked with them to fit the music to the movie. The movie would not be nearly as impactful or soulful without such rocking music. Thanks also to composer Eric Santiestevan (who once upon a time worked as a lab manager) and everyone who contributed.
THE PHD MOVIE IS COMING! - As the big colorful banner above says, The PHD Movie is coming to DVD and online streaming! We could not be more excited for everyone to see it (or see it again if you caught it at one of the 500+ screenings). It's really a great movie. Look for lots of bonus material to be released as the date gets nearer.
PHD Calendar - Hey everyone, there's still a few PHD Calendars left. Get 'em while they last!
