Wednesday is Doomsday. The BBC's 'Late Night Line-up' team predicts a horrific battery existence in 2,000 storey flats within 90 years (9.45 on BBC2), Peter Harper, scientist, anal-yses the seduction of science by morality and ideology, the spinster Aunts of this year's generation gap (8.25 on Radio 3) and Michael Billington attacks words themselves and finds them increasingly meaning-less (9.45 on Radio 4). `Controversy: Defence and the Responsibility of the Scientist' (Mon-day, 9.20 on BBC2) presents a debate on the allegiance of contemporary scientists to the State. The furtive growth of chemical and biological weaponry is seen as an inevitable, yet awful consequence of this allegiance. 'Defence' is the first of five 'Contro-versy' programmes. What arc we doing about it? Hear Richard Neville, Peter Hain and other 'New Radicals' in their attempt to answer that question (Tuesday, 9.0 on radio 4).
Cinema
In the West End don't miss the last week of Buster Keaton (Academy) or try a little find--a Phillipe de Broca comedy (he made 'That Man From Rio') starring Ursula Andress and J P Behnondo `Up To His Ears' at the Tolmer from Mon to Wed. Amongst the locals, best bet is to catch up with The Wild Bunch' (Chelsea), 'Some Like It Hot' (Hampstead) and 'Downhill Racer' (Haverstock Hill). For late film goers there's Franju's 'Eyes Without A Face' (Kentish Town Venus Thur-Sat) and a double
one screening this season at the New Cinema Club on Monday at 7pm. There's an all-night music film pro-gramme at the Electric (Fri and Sat) which includes 'Don't Look Back' and 'Monterey Pop'.
Exhibitions
Art Spectrum now open at Alexandra Palace, over 100 artists with every-thing from paintings through events and films to music. And last opport-unities to see the Alastair McAlpine Gift, together in entirety, at the Tate. 60 brightly coloured, abstract pieces from the 'New Generation' of English Sculptors.
Music
Roll on September for the Rock fans when the groups come back from working abroad to do the college circuit. In the meantime try Stone The Crows at The Marquee on Friday. C.M.U. Upstaris at Ronnies on Sat. have re-arranged their personnel and played very well on their last appear-ance at the club. On the same night Fairport Convention make an isol-ated appearance at Dagenham, Roundhouse and the following week the same venue presents the Grease Band for lovers of churning guitars and organ. If you want to follow up this
bill of Menzel's 'Capricious Summer' and the captivating 'Woman Of The Dunes' (Islington Green Screen on Sat). The National Film Theatre shows films by Lennon and Ono (Fri) and `Pierrot le Fou' (Friday late night). Warhol's 'Bike Boy' gets only
week's music feature on Mike Maran, then you can sec him on Sunday evening at St Martin-in-the-Fields folk club, Trafalgar Square. Mike Westbrook's laughing. Oriental tenor player George Khan turns up with his own group at the Albion (Friday) and with Peter Lemer's at the 100 Club (Monday) ,this week. When he gets down to serious business he can be an author-itative voice, as can Dudu Pukwana and John Dyani, both at the 100 in the same band. International high mote artist Maynard Ferguson, known and loved by sensitive dogs the world over, brings his own band to the 100 on Thursday. On another and less professional tack, the Scratch Orchestra is now in residence at the Alexandra Palace Arts Spectrum throughout the week and Michael
Chant's 'Private Company', an off-shoot of it, plays there on Monday next. The BBC Symphony contrib-utes to Verdi's 'Requiem' at Tuesday's Prom
Poetry
August being a rather stagnant month it's probably a good idea to have a look round the really good bookshops like Compendium, Turret and Better Books and catch up on what they've got.
Theatre
'Do It!' from the Pip Simmons
Theatre Group comes the the Theatre Upstairs this week with a reputation that should fill the theatre for a year-s() book now.
