Indie legend MJ Hibbett is bringing his hilarious - and rigorously researched - new one-man musical 'Data and Doctor Doom' to London Data Week. He'll be performing at The Hub in Peckham on Friday 11 July , in collaboration with University of the Arts London's Creative Computing Institute.
As the world's leading (also only) academic expert on Doctor Doom, MJ is the ideal person to tell you all you need to know about the next big baddie of the Marvel movies before Robert Downey Jr brings him to the MCU in 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' and 'Avengers: Doomsday'.
The show is an adaptation of his PhD thesis (yes, that makes him a Doctor of Doctor Doom), using songs, slides, jokes and a unified catalogue of transmedia character components to explain how all fictional characters can be understood with stats and why on earth you'd want to do that. You'll come away understanding randomised stratified sampling, dual process theory, and, most importantly of all, why Doctor Doom is better than Batman.
