The two were awarded Nobel Prizes in 1993, for work they did independently on RNA splicing. When I asked Sir Richard at lunch what we could do to spark more interest in science among young people, I was surprised by his answer: make it easier for them get their hands on fireworks.

	The pyromusical was designed and programmed by Rusty Johnson, our Victorian display manger, and it was the first time Rusty has designed and programmed a large scale pyromusical. It was also the first time he has designed and programmed a competition display so its a great achievement for Rusty on his debut. The spectacular 18 minute pyromusical was fired from a barge in Manilla and featured a great Australian music but also included a compulsory segment of Philippine music that all competitors were required to use in their displays.
