Sent on behalf of Angela... Jo (moderator) ------------------------------------ The Institute of Physics would like to invite you to a public Lecture given by Professor Sir Michael Berry. *How quantum physics democratised music* Date: Monday 4^th March 2013 Venue: Institute of Physics, 76 Portland Place, London, W1B 1NT Time: 18.30 (registration from 18.00) "Connections between physics, technological invention, and aspects of human life that seem far from science, are both unexpected and unexpectedly common. And rather than flowing one way -- from physics to gadgets -- the connections form an intricate and subtle web, linking all aspects of human culture in a way that eludes our convenient intellectual categories." In this lecture, Sir Michael Berry will explore this theme in a non-technical way. The talk will range widely, from music, through how quantum physics helps him do quantum physics, to oriental mirrors and the colour of gold. The full details about the lecture and speaker can be found in the pdf <https://www.eventsforce.net/IOP/media/uploaded/EVIOP/event_366/MichaelBerry_QPDmusic.pdf>. The lecture is free to attend and is open to all, physicists and non-physicists alike, so please feel free to pass this invitation on to your colleagues, students, relatives or anyone else whom you think would like to attend. Places are limited, so registration is required for those wishing to attend. Please register at, http://publiclectures2013.iop.org We look forward to seeing you there. *Angela Townsend Development Administration & HE Curriculum Support* Institute of Physics 76 Portland Place London W1B 1NT E-mail: [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]>_ *www.iop.org* <http://www.iop.org/>** Follow us on Twitter <http://www.twitter.com/physicsnews>and Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/instituteofphysics> ------------------------------------ ********************************************************************** Further information about the psci-com discussion list, including list archive, can be found at the list web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/psci-com.html You may also change your settings and subscribe/unsubscribe to psci-com from the web site.
