Post-recorded podcast of the lecture. (I forgot to press "record" at the start of the
live lecture, so this is a recording of a repeat run given without any audience. )
Handwritten notes from the lecture. (The handwritten notes from the podcast are available here.)
Waiting room video: interview with Olga Paris-Romaskevich.
Explained the RSA public key cryptosystem.

It is worth considering, with the benefit of hindesight, the following quote
"both Gauss and lesser mathematicians may be justified in rejoicing
that there is one science at any rate [number theory], and that their
own, whose
very remoteness from ordinary human activities should keep it
gentle and clean."
from G.H. Hardy's A Mathematician's Apology. This short book
is well worth a read and is available online here.
