But there is a chance we are either too small or too large to perceive any extra dimensions that might exist. Whilst we cannot visualise these possible extra dimensions we can still explore them using beautiful tools from a mathematical subject called “Bundle Theory”.

Many of us struggle to remember a new person’s name 5 minutes after being introduced but have that one friend who never forgets a face! And a few special people have phenomenal memories that seem to know no bounds. For example, memorising 884 randomly shuffled playing cards in just 30 minutes!

We’re going to learn from the great brains and discover how to enhance our memory using simple techniques.

We have all heard that we are what we eat. If you eat processed sugar and high fat foods, your risk for heart diseases and many cancers skyrockets. On the other hand, grab a kale salad instead of a chocolate bar, and your whole body is nourished.

But did you know that your daily lifestyle choices actually shape your genetic make-up? And even more, these changes are passed on through our genes! So, how did your grandparents shape your DNA? And what can you do to pass on the best genes to your children and grandchildren?

So you think the Earth is round, do you? Is that just what you’ve been told, or can you prove it? If you think you can, then come along, because I bet you can’t. Even the UN agrees with me (look at its flag).

The hidden geometry of nature is a class that explores beauty, pattern and symmetry in nature – an adventure into the living rhythms, form and number in nature through the language of geometry. This class offers an introduction to the language and symbolism of geometry, and a different perspective to our relationship with the natural world.
We will explore the beauty of nature expressed by its hidden geometry (and sometimes not so hidden!) and the ways we are inspired and respond to this beauty through Art, Science and Philosophy.
