NATURAL PHILOSOPHY

Standing on the shoulders of the Greats…Archimedes, Copernicus, Newton, Clerk Maxwell and others

Natural Philosophy is an age-old study. Over the centuries its practitioners have sought to distil the physical behaviour of our Universe at a fundamental level. Modern scientists and engineers builds on these brilliant minds, as they develop deeper understanding of specialist disciplines.

By returning to the earlier, broader way of thinking, we can use ‘First Principles’ - the Laws of Nature at their most basic - to interact with a wide range of domain experts; bringing the essence of their knowledge and understanding into our visualizations, animations and simulations, using a unique combination of methods and skills.

Creating virtual scenes and scenarios that resonate with a wide audience is like creating an engaging musical. Within operational and budgetary constraints, specific elements such as stage sets, décor, lighting, sound, actors, choreography, musical score and lyrics all need to play their part and work together as a whole.

Integration is key

In our 6D Digital Diorama, all mesh together to deliver an immersive experience, in which LIFE, ENERGY and WATER have the lead roles, and their respective stories are placed in temporal, spatial and situational context.

The tracking of Global Mean Surface Temperature (GMST) is a reliable indicator of the speed of recent climate change

Rapidly implementing the innovation and change required to alter the current climate trend is a huge task. It requires support and investment at every level, including financial, and confidence in the projected outcome. Trust is key to securing both. Thus, open access to the thinking process - the underpinning philosophy - behind simulation and visualization is essential; with the crucial question being - Why can I rely upon this?

As part of our 4P Sustainability Assurance process we address reliability using the equally ancient, Claim, Argument, Evidence format, as this enables us to link our logic all the way back to ‘First Principles’, if required.
