SUMMARY:Evening Exchange: Material and Mechanical
DESCRIPTION:‘Indeed we may consider the engine as the material and mechanical representative of analysis.’’\n– Ada Lovelace\, ‘Notes upon L. F. Menabrea’s Sketch of the Analytical Engine Invented by Charles Babbage \nOn the surface Ada Lovelace’s parents had contrasting interests. Lord Byron was poetical and dramatic\, while Lady Byron was scientific and rational. But are the arts and the sciences really so different? \nHosted by AXNS\, a collective of artists and scientists\, our final Evening Exchange brings scientists and designers together in a conversation about the perceived tensions between the two fields. The evening features a discussion between neuroscientist Dr Caroline Di Bernardi Luft and designer Heather Barnett. \nBy examining some curious inventions (such as the amphibious bicycle above)\, we’ll also explore how design and science can solve real-life problems in unexpected ways.

SUMMARY:Evening Exchange: Science of Harmony
DESCRIPTION:Supposing\, for instance\, that the fundamental relations of pitched sounds in the science of harmony and of musical composition were susceptible of such expression and adaptations\, the engine might compose elaborate and scientific pieces of music of any degree of complexity or extent.’ \n– Ada Lovelace\, ‘Notes upon L. F. Menabrea’s Sketch of the Analytical Engine Invented by Charles Babbage’> \nAs she once imagined they would be\, Ada Lovelace’s numerical algorithms have now been transformed into music. \nIn the second of our Evening Exchange’s celebrating the Victorian computer pioneer\, composer Emily Howard and mathematician Lasse Rempe will discuss how music and mathematics intertwine. \nThere will be a recital of Emily’s ‘Ada Sketches’ and a chance to produce your own mathematical music.

SUMMARY:Evening Exchange: Poetical Science
DESCRIPTION:‘You will not concede me philosophical poetry. Invert the order! Will you give me poetical philosophy\, poetical science?’ – Ada Lovelace in a letter to her mother \nAda Lovelace was Lord Byron’s daughter and she inherited his talent for writing. At age 12 she wrote a book called ‘Flyology’ that included a design for a mechanical flying horse\, but her mother told her off for neglecting her studies and ‘Flyology’ was left unfinished. \nWhat might have happened next? With the beginnings of a tale provided by Interactive Fiction as your springboard\, join Emily Short\, a renowned author in the IF community\, and have fun learning how to create an interactive story and bring it to completion. \nThe first in our Evening Exchange series\, this event will involve working on the piece as a group\, followed by a brainstorming game and an individual writing jam.

SUMMARY:Ada Lovelace Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Discover the remarkable story of Ada Lovelace\, a Victorian pioneer of the computer age\, in our free exhibition celebrating the bicentenary of her birth. \nCalled the ‘Enchantress of Numbers’ by Charles Babbage\, Lovelace was the daughter of infamous poet Lord Byron and the admired intellect Annabella Milbanke. She studied science and maths at a time when women rarely had access to such subjects and collaborated with Babbage on his calculating machines. Lovelace is celebrated for imagining the machine’s potential\, foreshadowing modern computing a century later. \nOpening on Ada Lovelace Day\, the exhibition brings together for the first time Lovelace’s portraits\, letters and notes\, alongside the incredible calculating machines she worked with.
