Events on Wednesday 10th June

“Join Professor Simon Shaw-Miller (University of Bristol) as we consider relationships across the musical and visual arts. This is the second of a series of illustrated talks. Tonight’s talk will focus on the ways music often tries, and fails, to demote the visual. Musicians discussed will include Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Satie and Cage.”

“In this talk, Danny will discuss the strategy that Transform employed to bring about reform and the positive impacts it had. He will also discuss why he believes that the drug war is so resilient. In his view, the global prohibition was never intended to serve citizens, but the drug war is now an integral part of geopolitics. He believes that systemic change is required in order to achieve a peaceful relationship with those who produce, supply and use the ‘wrong’ drugs.”
