Documenting History
- 5 September 2016
- 10.30am - 5.30pm
- Graduate House
All historians have data. Whether it is scribbled in the margins of books, neatly organised in a research notebook or stored in a dozen Excel spreadsheets. In all these forms, we can record and retrieve our data, but in the digital age, there is so much more we could be doing.
The workshop will be two-day event encouraging historians to engage with their historical data in new and innovative ways. Each day will be separated into four sessions, both pedagogical and practical, working with different types of historical data.
The plenary sessions will explore the nature of a potential data set and the different approaches to collecting, storing and using that data. The aim is to provide delegates with both an understanding of the importance of consistent data management practices in their day-to-day research as well as an overview of the tools appropriate to their type and stage of research.
The practical sessions, immediately following, will separate delegates into breakout groups, each of which will work with data provided by delegates, practicing the packaging and manipulation skills discussed in the previous session. The aim is for all delegates to leave the workshop with practical experience developing their own data sets, which can be continued afterwards.

Alan Turing, Bletchley Park and the origins of Big Data
- 27 September 2016

- Stuart Mason Building, SMB0.14
Sir Dermot Turing, Alan Turing’s nephew, will talk about his uncle’s work at Bletchley Park, the origins of the machinery approach to code-breaking, and how this developed at Bletchley.
During the course of World War 2 the Government Code and Cypher School transformed decryption from the work of cottage artisans to an industrial-scale intelligence factory.
Alan Turing’s lesser-known role in the Machine Coordination and Development section casts light on one of the other secrets of the War – just what was Alan Turing doing after his work on Enigma?

NT Live - The Threepenny Opera
- 22 September 2016
- 7pm

A darkly comic new take on Brecht and Weill’s raucous musical broadcast live from the stage of the National Theatre.
London scrubs up for the coronation. The thieves are on the make, the whores on the pull, the police cutting deals to keep it all out of sight. Mr and Mrs Peachum are looking forward to a bumper day in the beggary business, but their daughter didn’t come home last night and it’s all about to kick off…
With Olivier Award-winner Rory Kinnear (Hamlet, Othello, James Bond), as Macheath alongside Rosalie Craig (As You Like It, My Family and other Animals) as Polly Peachum and Haydn Gwynne (The Windsors, Drop the Dead Donkey) as Mrs Peachum.
This bold, anarchic production is brought to you by a creative powerhouse; adapted by Simon Stephens, (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time), and directed by Rufus Norris, (Everyman, London Road).

NT Live Screening: The Deep Blue Sea
- 1 September 2016
- 7pm
- Cope Auditorium
Helen McCrory returns to the National Theatre in Terence Rattigan's devastating masterpiece, playing one of the greatest female roles in contemporary drama. Tom Burke also features in Carrie Cracknell's critically acclaimed new production.
A flat in Ladbroke Grove, West London, 1952. When Hester Collyer is found by her neighbours in the aftermath of a failed suicide attempt, the story of her tempestuous affair with a former RAF pilot and the breakdown of her marriage to a High Court judge begins to emerge.
With it comes a portrait of need, loneliness and long-repressed passion. Behind the fragile veneer of post-war civility burns a brutal sense of loss and longing.

Inaugural Lecture - Better by Design - Professor Richard Bibb
- 12 October 2016
- 5pm
- Lecture Theatre LDS.0.17, Loughborough Design School
Since the 1980s Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technologies have transformed how we design, prototype and manufacture the products around us from aeroplanes and cars to televisions and phones. The advent of 3D Printing led to “Rapid Prototyping” which in turn led to “Additive Manufacturing” also captured the imagination. At the same time advances in medical imaging, clinical practice and surgical techniques has pushed the boundaries of what has been possible.
This lecture is about the adaptation and application of advanced design and product development tools and techniques such as CAD and 3D Printing in medicine and surgery. It will illustrate how the tools and techniques from design can help to improve reconstructive surgery, prosthetic rehabilitation and orthotics, leading to enhanced quality of life for a wide range of patients. The lecture will highlight the significant advances over the last 20 years and give a view on the future of this research.

The Civic University Seminar
- 20 September 2016
- 5.30pm-8.30pm
- Upstairs in the Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough, LE11 5BE
Overview:
Historically a civic university was the term given to a university devised to tend to a particular civic need - an institution created for the development of teaching and learning of a (predominately industrial) discourse. However a more contemporary understanding of this term is to think about the increasing ‘need’ for universities’ to actively engage with their locality; to be successful and resilient.
Join us for the last in our current series of public seminars; this informal evening event is designed to explore the concept of a ‘civic university’ through a series of presentations by leading practitioners.
Speakers include: Andrew Merritt and Paul Smyth, Design Collective - Something & Son; Dr Clare Melhuish, Senior Research Associate & Co-Director, UCL Urban Laboratory; and Loughborough University's own Professor Darren Smith.

Firing the Generator brings to life Loughborough’s new cultural, creative and entrepreneurial hub: The Generator - working within the building on Frederick Street to test out its future form and function, well in advance of it becoming a reality in 2018.
The site has historically functioned as the home of the School of Arts, but is about to be transformed into a hub for artists, creative workers and designers, that will interact with cultural and creative activities, and artistic outreach programmes in the town. For the past two years, The Generator, Loughborough (Community Interest Company), a non-for-profit initiative, has been working on making this vision a reality.
In order to shape, refine and visualise the future form and function of the venue, a group of potential users of the space will participate in a 'live test' of what the Generator holds. Under guidance of architects, STEALTH.unlimited (Ana Džokić and Marc Neelen), the participants will devise a spatial intervention at the hall, that enables the activities to unfold. This will involve the creation of a large structure made of an impressive amount of cardboard boxes and plywood, that accommodates an exhibition area, a stage, a field kitchen, workshop facilities and more.
Once completed, the space will be opened to the wider public on the weekend from 30th September to 2nd October in order for you to see a proposed model for its future operation, and to widen the discussion about the space.
The full programme of performances, workshops and events organised as part of this weekend event will be released shortly.

Adapt Today to Shape Tomorrow
Tim Wentz, PE, HBDP
ASHRAE President, 2016-2017
Our Society theme this year is Adapt Today to Shape Tomorrow, which is based on the goal in our Society’s Strategic Plan to adapt. This goal relates to my personal history of moving from a slide rule in my early college days to a hand calculator and now a computer or smartphone as an example of the challenges and opportunities inherent in adapting to new technology.
This presentation will describe our Society’s theme for the year with a special emphasis on how the initiatives and directives found within the theme will help our members adapt to our rapidly changing industry and help make them more effective, efficient and productive.

In Search of Employee Voice Theory and Practice
- 9 November 2016
- 6pm - 7:45pm
- School of Business and Economics
Employee voice is a term that has been widely used in the practitioner and academic literature on human resource management (HRM) and industrial relations in recent years. As union density has fallen in recent years, analysis of voice in workplaces has often focused on how workers communicate with managers and are able to express their concerns about their work situation without a union, and the ways employees have a say over work tasks and organizational decision-making. But researchers from different disciplinary perspectives often use voice in different ways. Some refer to involvement, others to participation, while yet others refer to empowerment or engagement as if they are interchangeable.
This talk will present analysis from various academic streams and disciplines that illuminates our understanding of employee voice from these different perspectives. It will also review the meanings and purposes surrounding the definitions of voice; consider the role of key actors in the workplace; and evaluate the different forms and processes of voice in different spheres, contexts and organisational settings.

Professor Chris Linton (President of the IMA and Provost & Deputy Vice-Chancellor at Loughborough University) will deliver the Institute of Mathematics' Presidential Address on Thursday 8th December 2016 with a talk entitled 'Cultural challenges facing the Mathematical Sciences'.
The mathematical sciences ecosystem is a land full of excitement and opportunity. But there is a danger that much of this will be missed if we cling to 20th century priorities and value judgements. As the environment around us evolves, so must we. In this talk I will describe some of those areas where I believe change is most needed and what the consequent benefits might be.
Non-IMA members are welcome to attend.

The SAED Politicized Practice Research Group presents a talk by Dr Emma Mahony - Dr. Emma Mahony is a Lecturer in the School of Visual Culture at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin. From 2004-8 she was exhibitions curator at the Hayward Gallery, London. Emma will talk about the role that politicized art practice can play in radicalizing democracy. It considers how, by mobilizing a number of values that are the antithesis of the normative values disseminated within our liberal democratic and neoliberal order (including dissensus, philistinism, imagination, possibility and love) Dutch artist Jonas Staal and Irish artist Kerry Guinan are variously testing out and disseminating alternative democratic forms.

NT Live - No Man's Land
- 15 December 2016
- 7:00pm
- Cope Auditorium
Following their hit run on Broadway, Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart return to the West End stage in Harold Pinter’s No Man's Land, broadcast live to cinemas from Wyndham’s Theatre, London.
One summer's evening, two ageing writers, Hirst and Spooner, meet in a Hampstead pub and continue their drinking into the night at Hirst's stately house nearby. As the pair become increasingly inebriated, and their stories increasingly unbelievable, the lively conversation soon turns into a revealing power game, further complicated by the return home of two sinister younger men.
Also starring Owen Teale and Damien Molony, don’t miss this glorious revival of Pinter’s comic classic. The broadcast will be followed by an exclusive Q&A with the cast and director Sean Mathias.
Live rating for this performance is aged 15 and over.
Please note that ticket booking is not yet open for this screening.
Please keep an eye out for this opening in the coming months.

Earn to Learn: Doing the right thing for the next generation?
- 8 December 2016
- 9:30am - 4:00pm
- School of Business and Economics, Sir Richard Morris Building
In a 2014 report ‘The Future of Work’ authored by consultants, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and the Said Business School, Oxford University, the year 2020 was suggested as the point at which “Rioting sweeps across university campuses as students lose patience with lack of job opportunities”.
Now, that is hopefully, just consultants being provocative to sell their services. But, research in the Centre for Global Sourcing and Services at Loughborough University has indeed highlighted an emerging skills gap in the entry-level of those professional careers that form the bedrock of business support services within organisations, e.g. finance, HR, IT and procurement as the training 'nurseries' where the skills, knowledge and behaviours of professional careers are forged are moved offshore.
This event will bring together a range of parties to consider how the business support service industry might provide sustainable and developmental work experience to young people undergoing higher education.
The aims of the Earn-to-Learn scheme are to: 1) improve student work-readiness and employability, together with reducing debt on graduation, 2) provide employers with cost-effective, flexible sourcing solutions feeding into the acquisition and development of emerging scarce talents.

Exploring Brexit
- 8 December 2016
- 7pm - 9pm
- J002 Edward Herbert Building
The UK voted to leave the EU on the 23rd of June 2016 in a historic election. It appears that the decision to leave the EU took the nation and indeed our leaders by surprise as we are now gradually working through the process of what BREXIT actually means and what kind of BREXIT we will have.
There are a myriad of issues resulting from the vote to leave the EU the most strongly felt being the impact on jobs and the economy.
There are issues around immigration: What happens to EU citizens already in the UK (including students and those planning on coming to the UK to study) over the next few years. This is of particular interest as Loughborough is a University town and so relies significantly on students coming from all over the world including the EU. Therefore, the impact of the BREXIT vote on student numbers and consequently funding and academic research funding will need to be explored thoroughly to ensure that the town of Loughborough is stronger on the back of BREXIT.
Security: In the immediate aftermath of the referendum, there was a sharp rise in hate crimes reported to the police. EU and non-EU nationals being told to “go back to your country”. What does this mean for the type of society Britain aspires to be identified as? How would Loughborough Town and indeed the UK engage with questions of race and rights in the Age of Brexit?
Employment: The National Health Service is grinding to a halt, hospital trusts may no longer be restricted by the EU working Time Directive - what impact on staff productivity and safety? EU workers across sectors are unsure of their stand, what happens to Employment rights/laws (maternity/ paternity entitlements, annual leave, sick pay, etc.)?
We invite you to join us as we explore these issues on the 8th of December 2016. Come with your questions, comments and suggestions and let’s interact and develop ideas in a creative space.

Service Innovation in Emerging Economies
- 25 January 2017 - 26 January 2017
- 9am - 5pm
- West Park Teaching Hub
To date, much service innovation work has focused on developed economies. Going forward, emerging markets (EMs) are expected to provide as much as 75 per cent of the world's growth. Thus, both researchers and practitioners need to be concerned with building knowledge and understanding about how to successfully develop new service offerings for these markets. The Centre for Service Management, in the School of Business and Economics, led by Professor Thorsten Gruber, conducts multi- and inter-disciplinary research into a range of service organisations. In conjunction with SAMS and Loughborough University, we are hosting a 2-day workshop discussing service innovation both for EMs and those coming out of EMs.

Inaugural Lecture - Professor Ahmet Kondoz
- 18 January 2017
- 5pm
- Lecture Theatre LDN001, Loughborough University London
The Digital Technologies have entered into virtually all parts of our daily lives from work to entertainment, health to smart living, banking to online shopping etc. The use of digital technologies is expected to grow at an increasing rate accelerated by a number of new developments: More accurate data collection, faster (higher capacity) connections for data transfer by either fixed wired and/or mobile Internet, fast data processing capabilities for understanding of the data and appropriately reacting to it, and as a result, creating more intelligence to help deal with large and small scale world problems at societal, organisational and personal levels.
However there have already been several challenges emerging which require urgent research and development action. The two most important of the major challenges are how to tackle the ever-increasing amount of collected data in terms of timely processing and effective use of it, and the other is information security and privacy/identity protection of the users of digital technologies.
In this talk, the historic developments of the digital technologies will be briefly reviewed followed by the current advances in major digital technologies' application areas which can be considered as the digital revolution, and the talk will be concluded by highlighting the future challenges in this very exciting field

Inaugural Lecture - Professor Darren Smith
- 8 February 2017
- 5pm (with refreshments served from 4.30pm)
- Lecture Theatre LDS.0.17, Loughborough Design School
Prior to the mid-1990s, student housing and lifestyles were vividly represented by TV shows such as Rising Damp and The Young Ones. Professor Smith will show how the subsequent marked expansion of higher education and commodification of studenthood, has radically transformed how students reside and live within university towns and cities.
In turn, these changes have led to dramatic social, cultural, economic and physical impacts on urban environments and neighbourhoods; a process termed studentification by Professor Smith in the late 1990s. Using examples from across the globe, Professor Smith will highlight the main ways in which leading organisations and stakeholders have sought to integrate student populations into towns and cities in more effective ways, such as the development of Purpose-Built Student Accommodation and student villages, and the implementation of better management practices for town and gown relations.

R.D. Laing and the Problem of Experience: Therapy, Community and Education
- 25 January 2017
- 11am - 12
- RADAR ArtSpace, Edward Barnsley Building
R.D. Laing’s legacy deserves revaluation. It has the potential to provide tools for working through the contemporary connections between the capitalist semio-sphere and the aetiology of mental health. The concept of ‘experience’, which he develops by reading Jean Paul Sartre and, by extension, Martin Heidegger’s phenomenology, is key to understanding how Laing’s work sets itself apart from Freud-inspired psychoanalyses and various Marxisms. The same concept provides an entry point to understanding the dynamics within the therapeutic communities at Kingsley Hall and Archway (1965-1972) and the progressive conception of education and learning practiced within the London Anti-University.
In 2016 Vlad Morariu and Jaakko Karhunen conducted research in the R.D. Laing archive held at the University of Glasgow. They approached Laing with an interest in the correlation between the capitalist precarization of life and the increasing incidence of mental health disorders; Morariu’s research looking at institutional formations and the possibilities of institutional critique, while Karhunen working on contemporary art’s appropriation of Félix Guattari’s concept of subjectivity. Their presentation does not aim to celebrate uncritically R.D. Laing’s thought: particular attention will be paid to Guattari’s critique of the Mary Barnes case and Laing’s friend, mathematician Gordon Spencer Brown’s eye-witness account of what went wrong in the Kingsley Hall experiment. The presentation restages Laing’s thought within a contemporary context, which includes reformulating the problem of experience: what is there to say, five decades later, about how and what we experience in the family, in the psychotherapist’s office, in the university and in the museum?

Syncopolitics
- 15 February 2017
- 2pm - 3pm
- Martin Hall Boardroom MHL1.09
The talk will discuss the notion of 'syncopolitics'
Fred has coined the term syncopolitics in response to Catherine Clément’s seminal book, Syncope - The philosophy of Rapture, where she stresses that “syncope is spectacle, it shows off, exposes itself, smashes, breaks, interrupts the daily course of other people's lives, people at whom the raptus is aimed.” (1994: 251) Fred will look in particular at how the image of syncope and the syncope of the image might radically displace or dissolve the self and thus offer strategies of resistance against norms through renouncement or disappearance; a recess of the image that he considers as a sine qua non condition for thinking politics as what can only happen within a horlieu (an out-place or non-place) of representation: a syncopolitics that resonates with what Badiou calls inexist[a]nce.

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) - Designing with Users at the Centre of the Proposition
- 26 January 2017
- 9:30pm - 4pm
- The Link Hotel
Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is currently a hot topic, with implications for policy, business models and data sharing. But how do we ensure it appeals to the users by making the experience of MaaS better than that of ownership? ‘Mobility’ after all is not an end in itself, but a means to an end, enabling us to get on with our lives.
This event will bring together industry, the public sector and researchers. It will map out what we need to know about users to help take MaaS from a concept to a reality, look at some potentially creative ways of getting at the answers, discuss how this knowledge might be used to support the development of MaaS in the UK and identify potential funding streams to tackle some of these issues through collaboration.
Structured around thought-provoking talks and hands-on idea generation, this event will map out the imperative user research needed for MaaS to be successful.
The programme under development may include topics such as:
• predicting the future needs of the ‘digital native’ in MaaS
• whether co-design with users could generate innovative elements of MaaS that don’t yet exist
• what role the collaborative economy could play through crowd sourcing data or sharing infrastructure
• whether understanding and tracking individual mobility profiles could provide the framework for MaaS
• the privacy implications for sharing of personal data
• the implications of MaaS for geographic data provision to users
• MaaS for different sectors – rural vs urban or business vs leisure users
Join us for what is shaping up to be an interesting day of discussion, making new contacts and kick-starting proposals for funding.

Exhibition Preview: The Object is Alive - Matthew Darbyshire
- 27 January 2017
- 6pm - 8pm
- Nottingham Castle Museum & Art Gallery, Lenton Road, Nottingham, NG1 6EL
The Object is Alive has invited British artist Matthew Darbyshire to develop a new exhibition that actively engages with Nottingham Castle Museum & Art Gallery and its collection, and is influenced by the work of Polish artist and theatre maker Tadeusz Kantor, who was interested in the role and status of the object. Matthew has reimagined 12 objects from Nottingham Castle’s collections – including 20th century studio pottery, modernist sculpture and even a grenade from the Regimental Museum. By playing with scale and devising new materials and techniques, including experimenting with different concrete formulas, he has created a series of new works exclusively for the Castle.
The Object is Alive: Matthew Darbyshire is the first in a series of exhibitions that actively explore the role of object as discussed in Kantor’s writing and artistic outputs. Funded by Arts Council England and the Henry Moore Foundation, this exhibition is part of a collaborative project with Radar at Loughborough University, and will be followed by Mike Cooter at New Walk Museum, Leicester (Winter 2017), and Giles Round at Derby Museums (Spring 2018).

Paul Sinha - Postcards from the Z List
- 11 February 2017
- 7:30pm

Paul returned to solo shows after a four-year, self-imposed exile during which real life had taken over. Looking back, life as a travelling single gaysian delivering lefty, liberal jokes was quite straightforward. Now he has to juggle the responsibilities of being an uncle, being in an actual relationship for the first time in twenty years, and being that bloke, from that quiz, in that poorly-fitting white suit. It’s not easy.

Clare Hammond
- 4 March 2017
- 7:30pm
- Emmanuel Church, Forest Road, Loughborough
A multi-faceted and exhilarating programme by Clare Hammond, this is not to be missed!
Winner of the Royal Philharmonic Society's 'Young Artist' Award in 2016, pianist Clare Hammond is recognised for the virtuosity and authority of her performances and has developed a “reputation for brilliantly imaginative concert programmes” (BBC Music Magazine). You might also know her as the younger version of Dame Maggie Smith's character, Miss Shepherd, in the feature film, The Lady in the Van. Clare’s recording of excerpts from Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 1, with the BBC Concert Orchestra, is featured throughout the film, which was released in cinemas in the UK in November 2015.
Clare has performed in Emmanuel Church before and will return with a recital that takes us from the sombre intensity of Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre's Suite to the exuberant brilliance of Igor Stravinsky's music for his ballet, Petroushka. The serenity of Beethoven’s fourth Sonata and Fauré’s Nocturnes contrasts with the sparkling vivacity of Dutilleux’s Au gré des ondes and the intense virtuosity of Scriabin’s fifth sonata. A multi-faceted and exhilarating programme, this is not to be missed!
Programme
Jacquet de la Guerre - Suite No. 6 in G major
Beethoven - Sonata No. 4 in E flat major, Op. 7
Scriabin - Sonata No. 5, Op. 53
Dutilleux - Au gré des ondes

George Egerton Conference
- 7 April 2017 - 8 April 2017
- All day
- Martin Hall, Loughborough University
George Egerton and the fin de siecle:
This is the first conference dedicated to the life and work of George Egerton, the nom de plume of Mary Chavelita Dunne (1859–1945). Egerton is often discussed in relation to New Woman writing and scholars have tended to focus on her first two short story collections, Keynotes (1893) and Discords (1894). The two-day conference seeks to go beyond these parameters, with the aim of recovering her wider oeuvre and reassessing her wider contribution to fin de siècle and early 20th century literature and drama.

Crazy like machines
- 22 March 2017
- 1pm - 2pm
- RADAR ArtSpace, Edward Barnsley Building
Crazy like machines is a dance and visual art project with a social and political backdrop which aims to build an accessible and informal educational methodology to develop an innovative model of collaborative research and participatory performances.
Pushing the boundaries between verbal and non-verbal communication to explore the role of immediacy and mediation in drawings and dance to create cohesion in the group, the audience is encouraged to be actively part of an ongoing creative process in the form of performative workshops in order to build a ‘personal and non-linear visual narrative manifesto’.
Chiara Dellerba is a visual artist whose work experiments with the potential energy of the human body. Her pieces are often site-specific with an interest in the dichotomy between energy/movement, and time of reaction/determined space. Dellerba’s practice is an organic open work structure of experimentation using a system of signs and methodologies. She investigates the unconscious necessity for human beings to regenerate their lives, their environment, their relationships, and their way of perceiving a reality in order to be actively part of it.
