Recent topics have included: Physics: Is light a particle or wave energy? Literature: Was Oscar Wilde the true originator of the Decadent Movement? Maths: Why does the Weatherman always get it wrong? An exploration of Chaos Theory. Computer Science: RSS or ECC – which is the better form of encryption? Languages: How did Spanish Literature flourish during Franco’s censorship? History: Was Ivan really Terrible? Philosophy: Did Descartes successfully prove the existence of God? Music: Analyse the influence of J S Bach on popular music of the 20th Century.
