2024 SCIENCE. ART. FILM Program

The popular Science. Art. Film. series co-presented by the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia (NFSA), the Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science and ANU Humanities Research Centre returns to Arc Cinema in 2024, inviting audiences to examine the social and cultural forces at play in a variety of influential films. Each free screening is followed by a discussion, bringing together experts across diverse fields and cutting-edge research.

The series is hosted by HRC Adjunct Fellow, Dr Anna-Sophie Jürgens who says,

'This series explores our ideas, desires and fears about science and technology as portrayed in different genres and times. The lively discussions unpack how pop cultural narratives affect public discourse and understanding about science, and, by extension, the relationship between society and science.’
