Graham Walker is a bit of a Science Communication legend, and his Scicycle is a wonder example of why.

The Scicycle is a custom trike kitted out with a smorgasbord of science equipment, from eye- and balloon-popping liquid nitrogen experiments to pressure-powered canons and highly flammable hydrogen balloons. Created by Dr Graham Walker from the ANU Centre for the Public Awareness of Science, the Scicycle is designed to take science to some unusual audiences.

Here, Graham performs for a group of Year 10 and 11 students from rural high schools around Canberra.
