Cutting-edge conservation research blends with art and design to create two exciting, contrasting responses to mass extinction. Artist Paul Evans has been working in collaboration with Professor David Edwards and his team at the Department of Biosciences, developing and producing LIFE GAME. This engaging, playable artwork will involve participants in a high stakes contest to save life on Earth. Evans has also been working with filmmaker Jon Harrison to produce a series of emotional film shorts featuring five ‘future eulogies’ for endangered species, written and performed by conservation scientists from Professor Edwards’ research group.
