​Spider silk has captured the imagination of people for thousands of years, from ancient peoples using webs as bandage to Aboriginals using silk as fishing lines. Whilst our understanding of silk's properties has increased enormously our understanding of the process that produce silk are still limited. In this talk Morgan will describe the novel process of dissecting out and culturing silk glands as well as the interesting discoveries that have followed.

Nicholas Brusby gives a live Zoom talk on The Maths of Music.  Join us at 7.30pm 20 May, details from Keith on kmc.at.home.n8@gmail.com.

We will be running our quarantine quiz over zoom, which is a video conferencing app. You can zoom on a laptop, tablet, mobile device or from your landline.

How it will work
We will be running our quarantine quiz over zoom, which is a video conferencing app. You can zoom on a laptop, tablet, mobile device or from your landline. See below for more instructions.
Our quiz is going to be run by Dilys and Chris Oldham and Michael and Jessica Bullett (from Gangewood) and there will be 6 rounds! There will be varied questions that'll hopefully suit all types of people and interests!
The set up will be 2 rounds, then we will put everyone into breakout rooms for 5-10 mins, these are separate rooms with smaller groups so you are able to chat to each other more easily. It will also give you the chance to nip to the loo or make yourself a drink! Then we'll come back together, you don't need to do anything for this to work, it will happen automatically, then we will give you the answers for the 2 rounds we just had. This will happen 3 times!

​How to join
If you have never used zoom before, don't think that you cannot get involved. It's easier than it sounds.
