I'm moving to LinkedIn for posts related to my PhD work, find me at https://t.co/tGMzcyu1Ab. I'll send updates here as well but you're more likely to catch me in Li.

"The latest photographic trick, a rocket-firing camera that shoots from above," was featured in Svรฉtozor, a Czech-language entertainment magazine, published on February 17, 1911.
In 2013, the Oxford dictionary officially added "selfie" as a word, defining it as "a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media site." The actual origin of the word can be traced back to 2002 when an Australian man got drunk on his 21st birthday and posted a photo of his stitched lip with the words, "sorry about the focus, it was a selfie."
The very first photo considered to be a "selfie" can be traced back to a chemist and photographer by the name of Robert Cornelius from Philadelphia. He brought his camera to the back of his family's store, opened the lens cap, and then put himself in the frame by sitting motionless for approximately one minute. On the back of the photo, he wrote: "The first light picture ever taken. 1839."
Cornelius went on to successfully run a photo studio, taking photos of the wealthy. However, he soon lost interest in photography and turned his attention to growing his family's lighting business. He invented a device called a "solar lamp," which used lard instead of whale oil, making him a wealthy man. He also went on to invent the first kerosene lamp but was soon overtaken by competitors who created cheaper and more efficient versions of his lamp.
Cornelius' selfie from 1839 was not discovered until 1975 when a librarian happened to come upon it while working at the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia.
Male infertility is a growing problem all around the world. Sydney's University of Technology has collaborated with NeoGenix and Vertus to develop an AI tool that can help infertile men become fathers. Here's Rebecca Metcalf. #abc730

This plant that was supposed to die, like all the other plants I kill instantly, has thrived for 10 months and is now having a baby. Who said orchids are difficult?
#phdlife is surprising.

Last Friday @Wi3DP Sydney branch visited @UTSProtoSpace where we saw 3D printers from the very big to the microscopic resolution. Good times! Thank you @UTS and everyone who attended (yes there were more of us ๐ ).
