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.
“What is a dictator and why do we still have them?” By Matt Fitzpatrick
Historically, there have been more dictators than democrats in power, but we’ve mostly assumed that this is getting better all of the time. But will it? Thinking about where and when dictators have arisen, this edition of Lectures on Tap will explain how and why democrats have to keep getting rid of dictators.
“Ancient Journeys: The Deep Time History of Seafaring” by Dr Chelsea Wiseman
After a debut at our first ever Lectures on tap, Dr Wiseman returns to talk about the art of seafaring and its prehistoric roots dating back to Neanderthals.
