    The Irish Skeptics are back for the Autumn/Winter season and begin with a meeting to celebrate Maths Week with Matt Parker.

    Matt is a highly enthusiastic Mathematician whose life goal is to make people more excited about Maths. Using a range of presentations and hands-on activities, he communicates Maths in a very engaging and entertaining way. Having worked as a Maths teacher, Matt now also talks about Mathematics for organisations including the Royal Institution and the BBC. He has done stage-shows with Johnny Ball and was the People’s Choice Award in the 2009 national Famelab competition. He is very active in Skeptic circles in England and delivered a highly entertaining talk last year for the ISS.

    In this lecture Matt will look at how seemingly incredible results can actually be meaningless random patterns.

    What: Clutching at Random Straws
    When: Wednesday October 13th at 8.00pm
    Where:The Alexander Hotel, Merrion Square, Dublin 2
    How much: €3 for members and concessions; €6 for non-members

    Hope to see you there!
