Where do we get our mathematical symbols from? Why is the set of integers called ℤ ? When was the equals sign first used? How about zero? Good notation tends to catch on quickly, whereas bad notation can obscure beautiful theory.

The lecture explores how the introduction of new notation has paved the way for new leaps in understanding, and considers some mathematical quirks of language, such as what the number 4 in English has in common with the number 11 in Russian.

Physics of waves: Covers Quantum Waves, sound waves, and light waves. Easy to understand explanation of refraction, reflection, and many other topics.
Important correction: In the section of refraction, the colors are reversed. Violet light slows down in water more than red light, and violet light therefore bends more than red light when it transitions from air to water.

Jim explores what are the most popular interpretations of quantum mechanics and how we might need to be a little more specific when we talk about ‘reality’.
Jim's book "Quantum Reality" is now available on Amazon: https://geni.us/OF5X

Jim Baggott is an award-winning science writer. He trained as a scientist, completing a doctorate in chemical physics at the University of Oxford in the early 80s, before embarking on post-doctoral research studies at Oxford and at Stanford University in California.

He gave up a tenured lectureship at the University of Reading after five years in order to gain experience in the commercial world. He worked for Shell International Petroleum for 11 years before leaving to establish his own business consultancy and training practice. He won the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Marlow Medal for his contributions to scientific research in 1989.

Writing is generally agreed to be among the greatest inventions in human history, perhaps the greatest invention, since it made history possible.

You can read more about Irving's quest to explore the Noah's Ark myth in "The Ark Before Noah: Decoding the Story of the Flood": https://geni.us/zU95bVO
or learn more about cuneiform writing in "Cuneiform": https://geni.us/eMPb

Writing seems to have been invented in the late fourth millennium BC in Mesopotamia in the form of wedge-shaped marks pressed into soft clay with a reed stylus: the script known as cuneiform. Through his work on this ancient language, Irving Finkel, has uncovered amazing secrets from over five thousand years ago, including the story behind Noah’s ark.

Irving Finkel is the curator in charge of cuneiform inscriptions on tablets of clay from ancient Mesopotamia at the British Museum, of which the Middle East Department has the largest collection of any modern museum. This work involves reading and translating all sorts of inscriptions, sometimes working on ancient archives to identify manuscripts that belong together, or even join to one another. He is the author of The Ark Before Noah: Decoding the Story of the Flood.

This talk was filmed in the Ri on 18 January 2019.

Does Africa have the potential to feed itself? Yes, and in the near future, says Bingu wa Mutharika, president of Malawi and current interim chair of the African Union."Africa is not poor," says Mutharika, who has been Malawi's president since 2004 and has a degree in economics. The continent, he says, "has decided to shift from Afro-pessimism to Afro-optimism."The president of the southeastern African nation outlines a strategy incorporating subsidies to small—especially women—farmers, improvements in irrigation, distribution of sturdy hybrid seeds, building and upgrading of roads, a push toward alternative clean energy sources such as wind and solar, an increased continent-wide investment in communications technology, and the establishment of a strategic partnership comprising nations such as Uganda, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, and Zimbabwe, countries that Mutharika cites as having "track records of achievement in promoting agriculture and food security."Hosted by the African Presidential Archives & Research Center (APARC) on October 1, 2010.

Every child deserves a peaceful childhood and the chance to go to school. This is still being denied to millions of children around the world who are engaged in child labour. Half of these are suffering from the worst forms of child labour.
