Mould's YouTube video, in which he demonstrated the phenomenon of self-siphoning beads and proposed an explanation,[3][4] brought the problem to the attention of John Biggins and Mark Warner (academics at Cambridge University),[5] who published their findings about what has now been called 'The Mould Effect' in Proceedings Of The Royal Society A[6][7]

Between 2008 and 2010, Mould performed three geeky sketch shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with Gemma Arrowsmith.[8] Since 2011, Steve has performed live science comedy as part of the comedic trio Festival of the Spoken Nerd, with mathematician Matt Parker and songstress Helen Arney.
