    Colin Grimshaw, who worked in the Imperial College Television Studios for over forty years, maintains this blog, which showcases material from Imperial’s archives. The entries which accompany the videos provide a commentary on the history of the college, as well as an interesting record of the use of moving image technology from the 60s onwards, both in terms of the practical and technical aspects of video production, and in the wider sense of how Imperial pioneered the use of video in science education, as this entry on Professor Eric Laithwaite demonstrates.
