Physicist Rob Dimeo - SE01 / EP02
Sketchnote Army Podcast
Intro
This chapter features a discussion with a guest from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) about their vital role in establishing measurement standards. The conversation highlights groundbreaking research in neutron scattering and the guest's passion for sketchnoting, inspired by the host's book.
In the second episode of the Sketchnote Army Podcast, I talk to physicist and sketchnoter Rob Dimeo about his introduction to sketchnoting, and his digital tools of choice: iPad Pro 12.9, Apple Pencil, and Procreate.
Check the show notes for links to his brushes, templates and color palettes!
