understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
I'm reading Dan Simmon's 'Olympos' which has robots called 'Voynix'. Yesterday I read the section where the character Harman asks himself what the antique book dealer Wilfrid Voynich would have thought of the robots now named after him. I went off and read about him and the Voynich Manuscript. Today there is a BBC website article about the 'Voynich Manuscript', Which I think is a fairly obscure subject. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22975809
