With much excitement, I would like to introduce Visual Knowledge - a graphic design business helping researchers visualise their knowledge in unique & creative ways

Follow for some exciting graphical #scicomm

Was an absolute pleasure to help the #waterresiliencelab develop their logo!

Read more about some of the amazing research they do here --> https://t.co/bFPTdjvkvK

What better way to facilitate conversations between researchers, policy makers & the general public than with an engaging card game!

Was such a pleasure to do the illustrative design for #PolicyPileup by @maddymorris & @BabacanOytun

Did you know developing shared goals that reflect the values & perspectives of all members of #interdisciplinary teams is key to successful knowledge production & exchange?

This new paper (& graphic) shows the ASPIRe model could be a promising approach -> https://t.co/L7tMhhTWZT

@BobaStojkovic @McCormackSA Of course - workshops cover different uses of graphic design in scicomm (types of graphics, useful resources, how to plan your own etc.). The practical component takes participants through planning/drawing/sharing graphics.
Please don't hesitate to send me a DM to discuss more

Another great #workshop for the Network for Early Career Academics at the Australian National University yesterday. So many disciplines coming together to learn how to improve their #scicomm with #graphicdesign

Saw some pretty impressive graphics come together by the end!

[McCork Studios @McCorkStudios]

Was such a privilege to give a seminar & engage in discussions with the department of health at the Australian National University this afternoon.

So many amazing projects looking to communicate their research through graphics!

So great to see one of our figures featured as a new outreach & education item by @US_OCB

We also made a new *Biological Carbon Pump* graphic adding some key remineralisation processes which recycle #carbon throughout the upper #ocean.

When I say 'we' it really was the wonderful work of @McCorkStudios! #graphics #scicomm

Krill ✅ Nutrients ✅ Climate ✅ Fishing ✅ Antarctica ✅

Ecstatic to share our work on some obscure super powers of Antarctic #krill 🦐💪 - ocean fertilisation and sinking carbon!

It's here!! #Inkscape 1.0beta1 has launched & is ready for testing! We want to know what you think about it. Your feedback will help us in our next round of bug fixing for the big launch. Read more here: https://t.co/NKrIiHJdM9!

#ClimateChange is expected to impact recreational #fishing in many ways however, not all impacts are expected to be negative.

Check out this paper & #graphic on the climate-driven factors that could impact marine recreational #fisheries

[McCork Studios @McCorkStudios]

@mlestanden No problem at all! I hope it all comes in handy when you start to develop some graphics for your project 😄

[McCork Studios @McCorkStudios]

Great afternoon teaching graphics to researchers at the Australian National University!

Always amazing to see people so engaged with learning different approaches to #scicomm !

[MEASO @MEASO20]

Keeping to our #penguin theme for Southern Ocean #factfriday this week

We put together a quick graphic to show the average height of penguins in the #SouthernOcean including the extinct Colossus penguin that was thought to stand at an amazing 1.6 m tall!

#MEASO @ICEDantarctic

[McCork Studios @McCorkStudios]

This vector was drawn for a project looking at how marine mammals & seabirds can be indicators of change in the #ocean

The beautiful Southern Right Whale - perfect for a #WhaleWednesday

#vectorart #whale

[McCork Studios @McCorkStudios]

The #SouthernOcean is one of the least-observed in the world!

Over the last decade @SOOSocean has established a network to deliver sustained, coordinated & integrated observations to change this.

Was amazing to help develop figures for this project!
