Summer may be almost done but we're still talking inspiration from our trip to Greece. It seems that no matter where you walk in Greece, you'll trip over some ancient sculpture. There are figures, animals, columns and many forms of sculpture from Ancient Greece. Old marble was even re-used for more modern structures. So it's no wonder that we were inspired when we lived there to look more deeply into sculpture. And what happens when two scientists get curious about something, you get a fun and factual exploration of an ancient art form.
We hope you enjoy this episode on a useful, beautiful and fascinating metal.

A continuation of our classic episodes inspired by our recent month long voyage through Greece. This episode is all about silver.
In Ioannina, a beautiful city in Northern Greece, there is a museum dedicated to silversmithing. This museum is housed in the old castle battlements and is a gorgeous testament to the skill and intricacy of silver work.

The LuxeSci recently spent time in Greece again and we were reminded about all the deep and enduring artistic traditions here. For the next few episodes we'll be revisiting classic LuxeSci episodes with a Greek twist, episodes that came to mind as we roamed around this beautiful country.
The first episode is all about gold. In the National Archeological Museum in Athens, there are stunning gold objects found in a tomb, including gold burial masks. Goldsmithing has ancient roots in Greece and the artisans there still use some of the ancient techniques.

Hi Fancy Folks!
We're tackling a classic pattern this episode. It's all about stripes! Stripes have meant different things throughout the ages. Now, they symbolize anything from classic, nautical themes to something that hints of rebellion.
In this episode, we learn about why zebras have stripes, what "motion dazzle" is and Dr. Lex meets her match when trying to decipher a paper on charge stripes in graphene. Fortunately, a great explanatory article comes to the rescue.
