Two recent programs of Novum TV were related to some members of the HUN-REN Morphodynamics Research Group: Gábor Domokos and Krisztina Regős spoke about soft cells [1], while Eszter Fehér and Kinga Kocsis presented a project work at the Faculty of Architecture of the BME simulating spider webs [2].
Both streams are available at the links below:
[1] soft cells (from 12:16)
[2] spider web project (from 19:05)
