When science-y people from the online world meet, great things tend to happen. In this episode, we interview various participants during the recent Science Online conference in London to find out why they came and what they got out of it. Also, we bring you cultural news related to the mathematicians GH Hardy and Srinivasa Ramanujan, the artist Eadweard Muybridge and a few silly references to HG Wells. We even quote the evolutionary rap of Baba Brinkman, who's currently wowing the British Science Festival. Join Jenny and Richard in London for these stories and more from the world of science in art, literature and popular culture!
