But what do brilliant researchers actually do in their spare time? Or do they have that at all? In very personal diaries, they give an insight into their everyday lives in Collider Diaries and don’t stop at showing what drives them, how they live, and what they do when they’re not working on the world’s largest particle accelerator. Vanessa is one installment of a 6 part series called Collider Diaries, airing every other Thursday in the summer of 2021.
The 7-minute film introduces us to Vanessa from Venezuela and her experimental role in Sputtering – where plasma at high pressure is shot towards a target to eject metal atoms. These atoms are then observed. Outside of her dream job, Vanessa speaks candidly about her mother’s advice; to touch the ground with her feet whilst reaching for the stars. We witness her love of blue/turquoise in the apartment she shares with her husband, her transition to vegetarianism and Venezuelan cuisine.
