Sci-Fi Surgery
Friday, Nov 20, 2009 9:13PM / Members only
The future of robotic surgery will include tiny robots that enter our bodies and do their work from the inside, with no need to open patients up or knock them out. While nanobots that swim through the blood are still in the realm of fantasy, several groups are developing devices a few millimetres in size. The first generation of "mini-medibots" may infiltrate our bodies through our ears, eyes and lungs, to deliver drugs, take tissue samples or install medical devices.

Art Shows 19th November
Thursday, Nov 19, 2009 8:00PM / Members only
RareKind presents the first London solo show by Italian graffiti artist, Hunto.
Best known for his cubist influenced canvases and delicate line drawings, Hunto introduces a unique quality to the graffiti art scene, marrying non-conformist 20th century art characteristics to the equally non-conformist medium of graffiti art.
The London show, hosted by RareKind, is a culmination of his canvas, sketch, screen print and sculptural work, with a strong theme based around the human figure and that most beguiling of subjects, sex.
Born in Brindisi, South Italy in 1982, Hunto started his career as a graffiti artist in 1996 and explored many themes and painting genres. Massively inspired by the work of Picasso and Braque, he honed his style to give a retro twist to graffiti art and thus, his characters and designs became well known and loved on the streets of Italy.
Now for the first time in London, Hunto demonstrates with this stunning new show that Graffiti art has a validity and adaptability, which never ceases to surprise and delight.

1000Mph Car - The Race Is On
Thursday, Nov 19, 2009 4:29PM / Members only
Yes, the race for the new land speed record is on. The current record stands at 763Mph set by Briton Andy Green in 1997.
The target is now 1000Mph, with Green and 2 other contenders vying for the title. One from North America and the other from Australia.The British team is Bloodhound SSC, the Australian team is Aussie Invader, and the US/Canadian team is North American Eagle who have already built their machine and have been conducting test runs with an aim to set the record on the 4th July 2010.Breaking the sound barrier in the air is one thing, but on land it's a whole new ball game.
"...as the vehicle approaches the speed of sound, it produces a frontal shock wave which liquefies the earth ahead, so the wheels end up carving through ground, rather than simply rolling over it."
