Lectures on Tap @ The Gov
About
If you're a fiend for a YouTube video with your dinner, or are simply looking for a different way to get out of the house and learn something new to aid your cool Aunt/Uncle lore, this is made for you.Inspired by the original Lectures on Tap over in America, this activation brings industry experts into bars to give talks about their research. Think two 25-minute talks with a break in between, giving you plenty of time to head to the bar for another pint or a spot of dinner.
Held in the iconic Gov, you're sure to enjoy some good vibes before and after the talks. This particular activation is ideal for introverts, curious minds, or people just looking for something different on a Wednesday night. Below, you'll find details about the talks being discussed and the people giving them.
“Between War and Peace: International Law and Grey Zone Operations” by Dr Stacey Henderson
In a world of constant, invisible conflict, the challenge lies not in just applying law to war but in defining war itself. But why does it actually matter? Looking at conflict involving cyber and space, Stacey explores how modern tactics blur the line between war and peace.
"Whodunnit through history" by Stuart Romeo-Richards
This lecture will explore the extensive history of Agatha Christie adaptations for the screen. In particular, this lecture will analyse how recent adaptations of Agatha Christie’s work for the BBC draw on Gothic Horror aesthetics.
Accessibility: the gov is a wheelchair accessible venue.
