Jonathan Hare studied Physics at Surrey University. During his PhD (Chemical Physics at Sussex University) he was very lucky to be involved in some of the first pioneering work on Buckminsterfullerene (C60) - work which led from astronomy via chemistry into a new area of material science.
He currently runs The Creative Science Centre and is part of the Vega Science Trust at the University of Sussex. He also has consultant work with Schlumberger. In 2000 he was awarded a NESTA fellowship which he uses to explore creative ideas.
This is Jonathan's second Rough Science project.
