Museum Explorations Podcasts and Videos

Herbert Art Gallery and Museum

A tour of the museum, showing just how big, diverse, and fascinating it is. Including Dippy the full-size diplodocus, a brilliant immersive local history gallery, Lady Godiva, WW2 and the peace and reconciliation process, and some great art.

During the filming I met local history guide Spooky Joe, and she gave an interview about what she does and a tour of medieval vaults below the museum that I never knew even existed.

Oxford University Museum of Natural History

Recently given a makeover with new all-glass exhibition cases, this is a classic Victorian museum, founded for teaching, updated with some of the best museum design there is. Rather than just being a vast collection, in the Victorian style, every exhibit is arranged to tell a story, to communicate knowledge, to challenge and to inspire.

Kathleen Hyndman, Nature + Maths = Art

We are currently helping Helen Verrill from our Maths Department to plan a major international conference on maths and art for 2027. Kathleen Hyndman's paintings are one of the best examples of this synergy. In 2025 her work was exhibited in the Mathematics Institute at Oxford University. We made a short film to record the exhibition and to help inspire work on the planned conference.
