John Armstrong – A talk on Entropy, passwords & the history of code
John Seed – A poetry reading investigating historical documents
The spaces of the city are coded and password protected - socially, historically and through contemporary technology. A mathematician who works on coding and a poet who uses poetry to investigate and unlock the documents of the past will consider how coded histories can be unpacked and how we can think more clearly about the 'code/space' around us. John Armstrong is a mathematician and software architect currently lecturing at King's College London while researching differential geometry. John Seed teaches History at Roehampton University in London and works on religious dissenters in eighteenth and nineteenth-century England.
This event is part of Islington Exhibits.
