How the Natural History Museum is Scanning 80 Million Dead Creatures

The Natural History Museum in London has set itself the mammoth task of digitising its specimens - all 80 million of them. The museum's collection includes everything from a blue whale skeleton to Martian meteorites, making progress understandably slow. Head of Informatics Vince Smith says it would take around 1,500 years for the team to manually digitise it all, so in 2014 they decided to write software that allows them to do it in bulk. They now use six DSLR cameras to process up to 200 items at a time. WIRED went behind the scenes to meet the researchers working on the project and learn more about how they digitise the different specimens.

The Lab That Makes Lightning (Warning: Contains Flashing Lights)

The High Voltage Laboratory at the University of Manchester is one of the few places in the world that makes lightning. The lab works to predict failures on the electrical grid and protect it from blackouts.

WIRED went inside the lab to learn more about the team's work, and see some lab-made lightning close-up.

The Danish Distillery Making Spirits out of Fir Trees and Chicken Skin

Copenhagen-based Empirical Spirits is on a mission to bring new flavour to alcoholic spirits. Having previously worked at famed restaurant Noma, Lars Williams is eagerly leading an investigation into brewing and distilling, looking at flavours, traditions, technologies and techniques to see if things could be done differently. Why can’t spirits be seasonal, as food can, or have vintages, as wine does? Why should spirits be required to have an ABV of 40 per cent when they could taste far better at 20 per cent? WIRED went to Copenhagen to meet the team and see how they produce experimental drinks out of hacked-together machinery.

Poaching the Poachers: How Kenya is Saving Elephants with Night Vision Tech

In the last decade, Africa’s elephant population has declined by around 110,000, primarily due to poaching. The slaughter of African rhinos has also skyrocketed — 1,175 were killed in South Africa in 2015 alone, compared with 13 in 2007. Because poachers operate mostly under the cover of night, this type of crime is hard to tackle. In December 2012, Google awarded WWF a $5 million grant to tackle the poaching crisis through technology, launching the Wildlife Crime Technology Project. They have collaborated with FLIR, a thermal imaging company, to design a new infrared camera capable of detecting human movement at night, and have installed cameras around Kenya's Maasai Mara Conservancy. Since the programme started, local rangers have nabbed over 150 poachers.

Marcus du Sautoy's The Creativity Code: How AI is learning to write, paint and think

Simonyi professor and mathematician Marcus du Sautoy’s new book, The Creativity Code, explores the future of creativity and how machine learning will disrupt, enrich, and transform our understanding of what it means to be human. In this engaging video, Marcus talks about using a definition from cognitive scientist Margaret Boden, claiming that creative acts must be novel, surprising and with value.
