    Check out the first two fantastic video clips on the following page. http://www.lynchpin.org.au/scholarships/our-scholars/
    We have been collaborating with one of the scientists in the video, Jorge, by providing him with valuable data which includes video footage and still photography (one of our pics features in the first video), of our local octopus species, Octopus tetricus, (aka Gloomy Octopus or Common Sydney Octopus – the type of octopus we keep in our tanks here in the centre).

    The project is simple and informative in its educational message, while visually stunning and entertaining at same time. A lot of work has gone into this beautiful collaboration of science and art.

    Have a look, we are sure you will enjoy it as much as we did. ~Kerryn
