Mark Miodownik in conversation with Cory Doctorow

12 Sep 2009

Speakers: Mark Miodownik, Cory Doctorow

On 12 September 2009, The Roundhouse in Chalk Farm hosted The Long Conversation, a 12-hour relay discussion involving twenty different speakers spanning science, art, business, technology, literature and philosophy. The series was inspired by Jem Finer’s 1000-year piece of music Longplayer – performed, simultaneously, elsewhere in the building.

Mark Miodownik and Cory Doctorow discuss the limitations of a modern and unadventurous education and looking beyond a grounded existence.
