Beatboxer Tom Thum has a symphony in his throat, but how does he make those sounds? Armed with a microphone and camera, get up close and personal as we peer down the back of Tom Thum's throat. In this eye opening, somewhat stomach turning and frequently hilarious talk and performance, Tom Thum is joined on stage by Ear Nose & Throat Surgeon, Dr Matthew Broadhurst as they reveal what happens behind the scenes. It's wet, it's gooey, it's strange, it's amazing and possibly the first time anything like this has been attempted on stage. Beat Boxer Tom Thum appears to have not only a symphony orchestra but also a jazz band, techno DJ, 80’s synth-pop group and collection of exotic world instruments residing somewhere in his throat. Recognised worldwide for his obscure talent to manipulate his vocal chords, Tom confirms to his audience that there is no sound he can’t mimic. Propelled to Internet stardom with his 2013 TEDxSydney performance, which quickly became the highest viewed TEDx video of all time, Tom can now be seen alongside composer Gordon Hamilton, performing his own world's first, original beatbox symphony, 'Thum Prints’.

Vantablack S-VIS is a new and exciting super-black coating that is air applied. Though the original material boasts a 99.65% light-trapping amount, the spray offers greater flexibility in terms of application, which essentially means other options besides the singular chemical vapor deposition transfer method used for Vantablack, and which also requires a vacuum chamber. During testing it performed well in both ultraviolet and most infrared levels, the company reported. In addition, it is super-hydrophobic.
Ben Jensen, Chief Technical Office of Surrey NanoSystems, said of the potential of Vantablack S-VIS: “We are continuing to develop the technology, and the new sprayable version really does open up the possibility of applying super-black coatings in many more types of airborne or terrestrial applications.”
