Best of the Domefest
If you live in or around Adelaide then run, don't walk, to the nearest phone/computer terminal/ticket outlet and get tickets for "The Best of the Domefest" at the Planetarium at Mawson lakes. This is a series of award winning short films designed to be projected onto the dome of a planetarium (or any other dome-shaped structure).
There were science education films, abstract films and wonderful little narratives. My favorite was "Dome sketch" which was just a series of abstract sketches, but absolutely wonderfully done. The Bettdeckrerschnappender weisle liked "Journey on a Snowflake", featuring singing H2O molecules and EldestOne liked "sciophobia" about ... well, you just have to see it.
Just don't do what I did, which was to leave the tickets at home. Talk about embarrassment (the Domefest folks were good about it though).
Details for getting tickets are here.
