Max Koch presenting. The slide titled "Autumn 2024 -- new 'test case' for our code: homebrewed ginger beer". It shows his lab group in their lab with Max holding up a swing-top beer bottle to a high-speed camera and microphone, about to open it. The other team members use the equipment, such as the computer for the documentation. Next to the photo is a still shot from the video, showing the moment the swing top lid is lifted off the bottle, with gas vapours escaping the bottle.

Headliner at the #KWSScienceSlam was Max Koch from @uni-goettingen.de, talking about how he accidentally became famous with beer.

As a side-project, the physicist studied how the POPP! sound is produced when a swing-top beer bottle is opened. #BeerScience

The text says: "The idea behind the film: The sunflower is more than a strategic crop, it's a symbol of resilience, heritage, and life - a land that keeps giving, even in dark times. Stories of science, business, culture, and emotion reveal its meaning. Our film's title, 'Sunflower: Meanings that seed the future', reflects this.
