Where Shapes Come From
Semiconductor (Ruth Jarman, Joe Gerhardt)
In the laboratory of the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. mineralogist Jeffrey Post explains how the smallest atoms come together to create shapes. Fantastic images emerge, transcending time and space. Semiconductor is interested in how science translates nature and thus calls into question our experience of the physical world.
