Professor Brian Cox: Emergence tour at The O2

Emergence is the follow-up to Horizons, which Brian Cox took to nearly half a million people. It starts from Kepler on the Charles Bridge in 1610, wondering why every snowflake has six corners, and works outwards to the cosmic web and inwards to the human brain: how something so intricate comes out of rules that simple. It is a lecture with an arena’s screens behind it, and that is the point of going.
