The Inventive podcast project was devised as a novel format for 'mixing engineering fact & fiction': Each episode features both an engineer being interviewed, and a fictional piece created by a writer in response to that interview. The project aims... Read More about Inventive Podcast: Evaluation of Project Participants.

Opaque face masks harm communication by preventing speech-reading (lip-reading) and attenuating high-frequency sound. Although transparent masks and shields (visors) with clear plastic inserts allow speech-reading, they usually create more sound atte...
