A quick event notification: I’ve got a free talk coming up Wednesday, April 9th! I’ve spent the last few months doing a deep dive on KELP FARMING for the folks at Blue Robotics, and now I’m giving a presentation on what it takes to translate the world of aquaculture into words and pictures.
While working on this project I’ve gotten an in-person tour of Ocean Rainforest’s pilot farm here in Southern California and read more than I can say about different farming methods and kelp life cycle stages in order to craft a big informational poster about the history of humans and kelp. Building on these experiences, plus some work I’ve done in the past for the Schmidt Ocean Institute and Mystic Seaport, I’ll be hosting an hour-long presentation on how cartoonists can help translate and transform everything from kelp farming to ocean conservation to maritime history. This talk is geared toward aspiring or practicing science communicators, industry nerds looking to widen their reach, and anyone curious about the world of kelp farming.
Hope to see you Wednesday, April 9th at 9am Pacific/12pm Eastern. Register for free here.
