Date:	Monday 6th July
Title:	Waves
Speaker:	Gavin Pretor-Pinney
Description:	Waves seem to be everywhere, from ocean breakers pounding the shore, to the tiny, musical pressure fluctuations produced by a string ensemble, from reverberations of an earthquake circumnavigating the globe, to the electromagnetic rays emanating from a lamp, from brainwaves to Mexican waves, gravitational waves to royal waves. In fact, at a subatomic scale, anything and everything seems to behave as a wave. Gavin Pretor-Pinney, Cloud Spotter and Idler and absinthe importer, asks what exactly are waves and why are they so universal?
