The Knowledge: How to Rebuild Our World from Scratch
Lewis Dartnell (with Ele Carpenter and Carl Gombrich)
19 June 2014, 7-9pm (drinks from 6.30pm)
GV art gallery, 49 Chiltern Street, London W1U 6LY
If the world as we know it ended and the survivors had to start again, how would we set about rebuilding our world from scratch? Once you’ve salvaged what you can from the debris, how would you grow food and make clothes? How would you generate energy and develop medicines? And once you’ve mastered the essentials, how could you smelt metals, make gunpowder, or build a primitive radio set?
Lewis Dartnell, author of The Knowledge: How to Rebuild Our World from Scratch, will take us on a journey of discovery, a chance for us to reconnect with the basic skills and knowledge that our lives and world depend upon. Lewis will be joined in discussion by curator Ele Carpenter and interdisicplinarian Carl Gombrich.
This event is free but please book here.
This event is part of the Future Human exhibition and events programme. See: http://broad-vision.info/events/ for more information.
