]]>Featuring groundbreaking presentations, powerful performances and interactive breakout sessions with leading eco and spiritual pioneers Satish Kumar, Peter Owen Jones, Tim Freke, Chloe Goodchild and Joe Hoare – interspersed with sacred sounds and chants - Future NOW calls for an Inner Revolution.
It’s a call to become more mindful, more peaceful, more connected and more loving to ourselves, to each other and to the Earth.It urges us to change our “Descartes” inherited philosophical perspective of ourselves as separate from each other and the Earth and embrace our interconnectedness.It calls for us to grow beyond the selfish drives of our materialistic society and create a new way – moving from self interest to mutual interest, reciprocity and interdependence.
Throughout the day, conference participants are invited to explore how we can each make a difference and take urgent action to be the change in our daily lives. The breakout discussion sessions continuously echo and reflect on the question, “What am I going to do differently?”
Future NOW is an invitation to have a voice, to help shape our collective future and to take an active role in propagating the New Consciousness Revolution.
10 very earlybird tickets are now available starting at £30, till 21st August, rising to £55.
Featuring: “Earth Pilgrim” Satish Kumar / “Extreme Pilgrim” Peter Owen Jones / “Big Love Philosopher” Tim Freke / “Sacred Voice Pioneer” Chloe Goodchild / “Laughing Yogi” Joe Hoare
Henrietta Lacks was a young African-American mother from Baltimore who died in 1951 of unusually aggressive cervical cancer. Henrietta is remarkable because a sample of her cancer cells became the first cells to survive and multiply outside the human body, forming an ‘immortal’ cell line known as HeLa.
HeLa have been grown in laboratories around the world and millions of people have benefitted medically from the advances they enabled. Research using HeLa cells has led to some of the most important developments in medical history including the Polio vaccine, cloning and gene sequencing.
Working closely with Bristol scientists Professor Craig McArdle, Professor Jon Lane and Professor Harry Mellor, Helen Wilson-Roe has had unique access to the HeLa cells in the laboratory environment. Her project invites us to consider questions around permission, recognition and the role of the individual in large scientific projects.
Through her portraits of the Lacks family and the documentary Helen Wilson-Roe aims to bring their story to the fore and to make Henrietta’s image and her family’s pride at her legacy, visible beyond the scientific research community. Helen has gifted the Lacks family portraits, and copyright to the Lacks family.
Jeri Lacks Whye, Henrietta Lacks granddaughter, says, “Thanks again Helen. We will finally have a very special piece that we, as Henrietta's descendants, can say we own (copyright). I'm so excited - overfilled with joy and proud. Words can't describe how I felt when I saw the wonderful portrait you have painted of Henrietta Lacks.
The display on Henrietta Lacks will run from 10th October till October 17th 2014 in Trinity’s upstairs gallery and is suitable for all ages. Access 9am - 5pm daily

]]>Featuring prominent scientists from the UK and North America, “Microbirth” examines how modern birth practices could be interfering with critical biological processes potentially making our children more susceptible to disease later in life. Recent population studies have shown babies born by Caesarean Section have approximately a 20% increased risk of developing asthma, 20% increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes, a similar risk with obesity and slightly smaller increases with gastro-intestinal conditions like Crohn's disease or coeliac disease. These conditions are all linked to the immune system. “Microbirth” explores several possible explanations. If a baby is born by Caesarean Section, scientists hypothesise this could alter the “seeding” of the baby's microbiome, the critical transfer of good bacteria from mother to baby at birth. Scientists suggest this could lead to the baby's immune system not developing to its full potential. Another hypothesis is the actual process of vaginal birth, including the cocktail of hormones produced during labour, could profoundly affect the baby's immune regulation and metabolism.

Damon Albarn is a master of smaller, independent, venues. His engaging style and warmth fills even the cosiest of venues, but you never get the feeling his ego or acoustic prowess will extend beyond the walls of this intimate, gothic, Bristol setting. This engagement did however extend into the consciousness of the audience that night, with everyone a riding high on a sense that the former Blur frontman will remember the evening as much as the punters as he blasted out Last Living Souls accompanied by his band, The Heavy Seas.
Next came the dedication of the Gorrilaz’s number Slow Country to Massive Attack which harked back to not only the venues status as the birthplace of the Bristol Sound, but also to alluring atmosphere that has drawn in the aforementioned trip-hop artists and The Prodigy amongst others. Securing these acts is a result of Trinity’s strong musical heritage, and the passion for the intimate, incognito, atmosphere that artists of the calibre of Damon Albarn obviously have.
His crowd pleasing encore involved an 8 strong gospel choir from East London, who supported 2 new songs; Mr Tembo and Heavy Seas of Love. But what got the crowd romping and jumping was a version of Gorillaz’s Clint Eastwood that featured Bristol-based paramedic K*Ners, who when he is not rescuing the sick, rescued the hip-hop sections of the song due to a last minute drop out of Damon’s preferred Snoop Dogg wannabe.
It was refreshing to see Albarn finish on the soporifically sombre - This is a Low, which was both the low note, and the high point, of this particular performance.
