It is not often that you meet a successful scientist, author and Hollywood movie maker all in one person and when you do, you wonder, how on earth did they do it!

In this podcast I talk to professor Clive Oppenheimer who has successfully navigated both the scientific and artistic world. Clive shares the key tools in his tool kit to unlock creative thinking including an insatiable curiosity, a keen eye for observation and the power of writing things down!

Clive’s story shows how deep knowledge can open up new opportunities if you have the courage to play with it in new environments.
