Forensic Science – DNA Evidence
Dr Georgina Meakin, University College London
TV shows would have us believe that DNA found at crime scenes always comes from the offender. This is incorrect and Dr Meakin’s talk will explain why advances in DNA profiling technology are actually making it harder to solve crimes. She collaborates with DNA experts from across the world on research into the transfer and persistence of DNA and other trace evidence.
Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.

mini mozart
Mini Mozart offers fun and interactive live music classes for toddlers and babies. The classes feature two or more live instruments; a clarinet, violin, flute, French horn, saxophone or trumpet with a piano accompanist. The idea of Mini Mozart is to get children actually listening, not just hearing. Children interact with our live musicians in a way that is impossible with recorded music.
It’s hard to say which will be your favourite part of the class; the warm up where the teachers introduce their instruments allowing your little one to get up close and touch the instruments, or the part where they reveal their suitcase full of fun props that will entice your child on an interactive musical adventure.
Packed with puppets, parachutes & percussion, bursting with Bach & bubbles, and flush with fairy tales and flutes; follow our rotating team of 4 teachers and their piano accompanist on a multi-sensory musical journey that will inspire your little one with instruments from every section of the orchestra.

Julia Noble: “It’s just a kind of friendly relationship…..”
Materiality, process/rules and colour are the three aspects that define Julia Noble’s work. As an artist it is important to her that she engages the viewer’s senses, creating an aesthetic experience through the physical components of her paintings, which draw upon her experiences and desires.
Julia is drawn to art works where the puzzle for her is to ascertain how they were made, where things are not as they seem, trying to establish the processes that have been employed.
Her practice has been founded on two quotes that resonated with her in relation to the use of chance by abstract painters. Robert Rauschenberg said that “And even though chance deals with the unexpected and unplanned it still has to be organized before it can exist…” and that he “used the fact that wet paint would run, and lots of other things…it’s just a kind of friendly relationship with your materials”. Robert Morris refers to the “tendencies inherent in a materials/process interaction.” Rauschenberg’s words inspired the title of Julia’s exhibition. Her practice involves an investigation into her relationship with materials, the tendencies they possess and how those tendencies can be pushed together with the impact of colour.
Julia explains, “I seek to challenge the viewer with my complex system of production which results in kaleidoscopic rhythmic images. The starting point for many of my creations stems from elements of earlier works transforming them into something new using repeating forms, processes, and colour to provide different perspectives. Incorporating stitch as a drawing method the marks I make are relatively unconventional but also serve to disrupt the form and texture of the surface. Furthermore, stitching is synonymous with bringing together, a cohesive force unifying the separate elements of the work.
“My creations are instinctive, how they end up is determined by the processes and the colours that are used. I want them to be unashamedly joyful and uplifting full of curiosity and optimism.”
Highgate Gallery open Tue-Fri 1-5; Sat 11-4; Sun 11-5. Closed Mon.
Exhibition continues until 22 March.
Join award-winning songwriter and musician David Gibb on a musical journey through his hilarious and often surreal imagination, where bears live in the cupboard under the stairs, wolves are roaming the corridors at school and trips to the moon are a regular occurrence. David’s song writing draws from a wide range of musical influences, deftly blending folk, jazz, reggae and rock & roll. Climb That Tree is guaranteed to have both parents and children singing along in no time – this is music that the whole family can enjoy together. “Prepare to be carried away with the music…packed full of catchy, toe tapping numbers.” The Guardian. “David Gibb has a well-deserved cult following for his stage show which includes tales of dragons and driving chocolate cars. His lyrics are genuinely side-splitting, and tunes guaranteed to get stuck in your head for days.” Creative Tourist”

Play is a normal way for humans to engage with their environment and subsequently acquire knowledge as well as develop competences. Digital technologies have pushed the potential for games into areas where people engage with one another in virtual and augmented reality. The aim of this talk is to share insights into how games are shaping society and to explore the benefits whilst discussing the potential drawbacks.
