The inaugural episode of Blender & Science. In this video I discuss the format of this series, break down new features in the perovskite node, make a simple figure concept from scratch, highlight Microsingularity's newest tutorial on lasers, showcase an upcoming project on metal dichalcogenides, discuss how I watch tutorials and what I'm currently learning and round off with a discussion about Gerald Undone, how his work has inspired my tutorial style, and how it relates to effective scientific communication.
