@PickeringLab @Anatomy_Hacks @Niamh_deBurca Thanks for showing us how the eyeball rotates when you tilt your head sideways! Your eyeball camera is something I'll not forget in a hurry!

realizing that squid have an ink sac and an internal shell called a pen so we’re living just a few short evolutionary steps away from calamarigraphy and honestly there goes the rest of today

Me: stands beside tram tracks.
Me: sees tram is coming.
Me: wants to observe tram wheels.
Me: stares at tram track.
Me: wonders why tram wheels aren't aligned with tracks.
Me: wonders why tram wheels are nowhere near tram tracks.
Me: realises tram is a bus. #duh 🙂

Do you REALLY care about accessibility in your science centre? Join us at 2.30pm in Room 2, for experiences and tips 😁 I'm sharing as an autistic SciComm & parent 🥰 #ecsite2022 #equity

@STEAM_Labs Thank-you! 🥰 I can't wait for your AI robots book to come out! 🤖

[Rebecca Buttigieg @Mrs_B_does_STEM]

So @STEAM_Labs brought a super cool construction and coding activity... but it contains an LED... and we all know how tinkerers are with LEDs... #likeMothsToAFlame #nameBadgeHacking #MakeECSITE #ecsite2022

One of the Experimenta explainers pointed out to me the genius of a previous participant 😎 #Nocturne #ecsite2022

[Rebecca Buttigieg @Mrs_B_does_STEM]

When you arrive so late for a session that they tell you it's too late to join... So you go hang out with the cool people in the Tinkering tent! Drop in any time! #MakeECSITE #ecsite2022

[Rebecca Buttigieg @Mrs_B_does_STEM]

Me: I walked to #ecsite2022 twice yesterday, I don't need to look at a map!
Me: *immediately gets lost in Heilbronn*
My phone compass: I'm so tired from the Gala that today I am going to point in the opposite direction.
Google Maps: What are you doinggg?
Me: I don't knowww!

[Rebecca Buttigieg @Mrs_B_does_STEM]

So how do you up your game from an acrobat, drummers and LEDs? You gotta throw in a beat boxer, trumpeter, jugglers and even more LEDs! Also... How much STEM can you spot in this clip? #ecsite2022 #gala #neverTooManyLEDs
