Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story is a documentary that reveals an unusual story of Hollywood legend and beauty, Lamarr, who was also a technology genius and scientist.

During World War II, Lamarr co-invented a secret communication system or ‘frequency hopping’ with composer George Antheil, in hope to defeat the Nazis. The technology is now known as spread-spectrum broadcasting which is the building block for GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and military satellite technology.

Written and directed by Alexandra Dean, alongside with Academy Award winner, Susan Sarandon, serving as executive producer and featuring narration from Diane Kruger, the film tells the extraordinary story and impact of a woman’s innovation.

ArtScience on Screen explores the intersection between art and science with moving images, video and film. This rolling programme includes solo showcases, curated programmes, feature-length films, multi-screen presentations and creative documentaries, featuring regional and local filmmakers and artists.

Venue: ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands

When: 1 - 30 Jul 2018, 12pm, 2pm, 5pm

By: ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands

Street art is flourishing in Singapore. So why does it still make some people uneasy?

As murals, busking and other forms of street art become increasingly common in Singapore's public spaces, artists say acceptance has grown to some degree. Yet, they can't shake off the sense that such art remains carefully curated and managed.
