A debate with Sally Potter, AS Byatt, Jonathan Miller and myself on what our film, the novel, theatre and neuroscience have to say about consciousness.

An Anatomy of the Bionic Body
A debate involving Steve Grand, James Geary and Brian Eno.

Risky Questions
Mathematical, political, psychological and pragmatic views of scientific risk.

Can Science Books Be Literature?
The announcement of the shortlist for Aventis Prize provided an opportunity for a discussion with Matt Ridley, Kate Mosse, Ian McEwan and myself.

Virtual Incarnations Exchange - Emergence Project
A series of workshops where dance students and computer scientists interact to find common ground based on their respective experiences of complex behaviour emerging from simple interactions.

Outsiders At Home

I chaired three talks jointly organised with the Royal Society on the Science and Sensibility of Drugs:
