Biomimicry: Biochemistry
& BioGeometry
2 x 60’, HD
Biomimicry is the science of borrowing nature’s evolutionary adaptations and applying them to the human world. Natural blood thinners from bat saliva, anaesthetic from mosquitos, antibiotics in bee honeycomb, and cryogenic secrets from the blood of amphibians – there’s a new world to discover, if you know how to look.

The towering Hindu Kush mountains of Chitral are home to some of Pakistan’s most spectacular views. Perilously balanced on the sheer cliffs, markhor goats stand guard over their young, fiercely battling each other across the treacherous cliffs. But as human development encroaches ever further on their territory, can man and markhor find a way to co-exist in this harsh environment?

Stretching between the Pacific and Atlantic ocean’s, Colombia is a wild and exotic land, divided by the soaring peaks of the Andes, and carved by the mighty Amazon and Orinoco Rivers, with vast and hugely diverse landscapes. Mangroves meander through grasslands, while expanses of wetlands fringe verdant rainforests. Snow-capped peaks emerge from mountain slopes clad in misty cloud forests, supporting an enormous wealth of plants, and an extraordinary
array of spectacular creatures. Off the Fence/National Geographic Channel
From Carcassonne to Caerphilly, from the Rhine to the Thames, masterpieces in stone draw visitors by the million. We unearth the history of those who laboured to build these massive fortresses – and the visions of the royals and aristocrats who invested stupendous sums to buttress their power and glorify their courts. This is the story of the blood, sweat and vision of the castle builders.

One of the oddest natural adaptations is super-deep sleep. These near-death experiences feature animals temporarily stopping their hearts and brains; others can hibernate for months at a time; while some can freeze themselves, employing a natural anti-freeze to keep their cells intact. But as we explore this natural time travel, we also discover that this lifestyle is not without risk.

Near the cold Pyrenees of Iberia, surrounded by ancient and dark green forests, there is an odd land where the rain is so scarce and the wind is always blowing. The soil is poor, there are no trees and the landscape has become very much like the moon. This strange landscape is home to incredible creatures with surprising behaviours. Living in such conditions is not easy and it’s only the toughest animals that will survive.
