Summary:

" Dr Cameron Jones could be a genius; his colleagues even think he could shape our future. Others think he could be the Renaissance man for the 21st century, because he's inventing ways for science and art to merge. Amazingly, one of the ways he's doing it is by growing fungus on CD's. So Catalyst reporter Graham Phillips went to meet him at the lab, but it turned out he's doing his best work at night. He's co-owner of Blue Velvet Bar & Nightclub; it's a joint venture with his mum. It's here in this purpose built boutique venue that Jones uses DJ equipment to create a crossover between Mathematical Modeling and art performance. If this seems all too weird, wait till you see what happens when he grows fungus on CD's."
