James and Aaron share a remarkable overlap in research of geology and life origins from distinct perspectives. Both have worked in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, among the oldest deserts in the world, and both have studied Ediacaran fossils. Join them for what promises to be a uniquely valuable exchange between art and science.
