Joe's drones by Catherine Fist | Students respond to SWARM Exhibition

We’re used to drones disturbing the peace by buzzing around in national parks or being used as weapons of war. But one researcher is looking into drone technology to see how they could be used to help us relax and wind down. If he’s right, we may be on the brink of a steady rise in personal drone ownership. Could we be seeing a new swarm in the making?

This podcast was created as part of the 2021 Journalism program at University of Melbourne, supervised by Louisa Lim. Students responded to themes in Science Gallery Melbourne's SWARM exhibition, a space that uncovers the very essence of human behaviour and questions what drives us to be social.
