"Pulau Pejantan is a remote island of Indonesia. Nick-named Sand Forest Island, Pulau Pejantan is a unique island with extremely unique geographical features and bio-diversity. Virtually undiscovered till June 2005, the island boosts a treasure trove of unique species that is found no where else in the world such as the bizarre sand worms which moves about like packs of snakes around the island's dune to the Lantern Fish which greets you in the sea before you reach the island. Our scientists are still developing a comprehensive theory to explain Pulau Pejantan's rich and unique biodiversity and the island represents one of the Institute's key area of research. Isolated in the Pacific Ocean, about 70% of the estimated 600 species found on the island exist nowhere else on the globe. The island is home to such evolutionary oddities as the Ghost Hare, a black and white hound like animal, pale-white reptiles and birds which has adapted to the sand dunes and forest habitat, spiny burrowing ant-eaters, and the rock pheasant, a bird that lives in the sand dunes. The images shown here are from the most recent expedition that took place between January to April, 2009" - Graham Sergeant

" Creators of legendary games of the ’80s and ’90s like Sinistar and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade are increasingly working on social games like those found on Facebook, largely because the development of popular time-wasters like FarmVille closely mirrors the creative process that drove the early days of gaming: small teams, short production schedules and more creative autonomy for designers." - Graham Sergeant

"The acclaimed frontline photojournalist speaks about the horrors of conflict, struggling with 'this terrible name, war photographer', and why shooting landscapes instead of battle zones has finally granted him a sense of peace." - Graham Sergeant

"Appia's intent was not to create pictorial realism, but to create a believable mood for the scene. Trees are symbolic, not literal." - Graham Sergeant

"Muhammad Ali pierced by six arrows, posing as St Sebastian: the April 1968 Esquire cover was one of the most iconic images of the decade thanks to designer George Lois, tying together Vietnam, race and religion. Lois's magazine work was showcased in an exhibition at New York's MoMA last year and is soon out in book form. More than covers, they're provocative statements of political and cultural issues that are still relevant today." - Graham Sergeant

As a mechanic for scaling difficulty, the key could be at the solved end of one of these diabolical puzzles that boffins like to set for crows. As you tap dance to keep the window of opportunity open, you have one eye on the bird doing a little puzzle solving -- a tension spike could arise when the bird pauses and a small ? appears over it's head. - Graham Sergeant

"The Stars My Destination had its origins in a newspaper clipping that Bester found about Poon Lim, a shipwrecked World War II sailor on a raft, who had drifted unrescued in the Pacific for a world record 133 days because passing ships thought he was a lure to bring them within torpedo range of a hidden submarine. From that germ grew the story of Gully Foyle, seeking revenge for his abandonment and causing havoc all about him: a science fiction re-telling of Alexandre Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo with teleportation added to the mix. It has been described as an ancestor of cyberpunk." - Graham Sergeant
