Jolyon Collier is a philanthropist, artist, and President & Founder of Counting Coral, a nonprofit dedicated to coral reef restoration through sculptures that house coral nurseries to grow more resilient coral. You can watch the video about the Counting Coral - Project Fiji installation here. Counting Coral is a 501-(c)(3) certified nonprofit dedicated to reef restoration. Counting Coral designs, builds, donates, and installs stainless steel sculptural coral nurseries specifically designed to grow climate resilient coral. These intricately designed sculptures create both an underwater park and a coral nursery, where fragile reef systems can be rebuilt and protected amongst the awe and attention from tourists. Counting Coral is working towards diminishing the massive and devastating effects of coral loss by changing the way coral gardener's garden coral. Our new approach to reef restoration is to harvest climate resilient coral and place them on our sculptures that are specifically designed to protect coral from predators. These precious and valuable corals will be kept safe and allowed to grow to spawning maturity, this coral will then naturally propagate valuable ecosystems. Counting Coral is leading the development of Sculptural Coral Banks, a new and advanced method to aid coral growth. Sculptural coral banks are designed with coral propagation in mind. These beautiful structures are multi-functional, tackling previous issues in restoration and tourism. Their sculptures are planted out with climate-resilient coral, developing into a coral bank over time. Their coral banks will naturally propagate reef systems, whilst maintaining a healthy coral supply for harvesting when needed.

NASA's Juno Probe arrives at Jupiter on 4th July, where it will execute a daring loop-the-loop in order to get closer to the giant planet than any other spacecraft in history. Juno is constructed like an armoured tank, because Jupiter is surrounded by a belt of very intense radiation that can quickly fry most spacecraft electronics. On July 4, Juno's engines will attempt to slow the probe down so it can be sucked into Jupiter's orbit. The slightest error could mean Juno misses this window, putting an end to the $1.1 billion mission. The man in charge is Dr Scott Bolton, and he speaks to Adam from Pasadena in California. Traditional art conservation tends to focus on paintings - how to stop paint from peeling. But contemporary art uses a much broader range of materials; plastics, rubber; pickled sharks. This means that an ever-increasing array of techniques are needed to conserve those materials. A new project is looking at the role nanotechnology can play, as Rob Thompson reports. It's National Robot Week. There is a fear that robots will replace many of the jobs done by humans. But what if robots just stuck to emptying the gutters and fixing potholes; the chores that humans find tedious? Professor Phil Purnell from Leeds University has just launched a project that aims to use robots to fix bits of the city - finding and patching tiny defects before they turn into massive sinkholes. The European eel may be mysterious, and delicious but it is also critically endangered. The only reason we know this is because of organisations like the Zoological Society of London. They do the unglamorous job of monitoring these fish caught in traps in rivers around the UK.

He pointed out the importance of the choice of format for the conservation of electronic archives: since 1989, the institute has used digital betacam to conserve video tapes, because it is the only format that does not entail a loss of information. Another aspect to be taken into account is the different versions of a single work that can be conserved in an archive. He also mentioned the need to keep a record of the conditions in which a work was originally exhibited, based on a questionnaire that includes questions on all possible aspects relating to the context of the work.

This week, we’re featuring Barrie Kolstein on the Contrabass Conversations show. Barrie discusses his father Samuel Kolstein and how he got into the bow making business, the progression into the bass making business, and the development of the Kolstein line of products (including rosin, stings, and cases) that bassists worldwide use today. Barrie is a perceptive and extremely knowledgeable figure in the double bass community, and it was a real pleasure to do this interview. John, Barrie, and I actually chatted for a couple of hours, and it is all excellent content, so I’ll be breaking this interview into two hour-long segments, and you’ll be hearing the first half today.
