Litmus Paper was published daily for five consecutive days at this year’s The Times Cheltenham Science Festival. The editions were designed and edited by DesignScience in collaboration with and generously supported by the British Library. Printed overnight, they feature interviews, news and write-ups of each day’s events alongside a series of specially commissioned articles.
