Description: Quaternions are amazing, they made modern vector mathematics. But how were they created and how do they work? In order to explain all that I am providing both a fun biography of Hamilton AND a biography of quaternions and the couplets that led to them.

Description: This teaser short covers why James Clerk Maxwell came up with the letters B and H for the magnetic field and why when Maxwell preferred B, Heaviside liked H. More details coming soon! </video> <video> The Inspiring and Kind Poetry of Michael Faraday: Scientist Extraordinaire Description: In this ode to Micheal Faraday, I use original documents and his own words to explain how, without any mathematics, he managed to inspire modern Chemistry, modern Physics and the popular science movement of the 1800s. "I am no poet..." is from Faraday (1858) Jones The Life and Letters of Faraday (2010) p. 398 "Deep veneration of Mrs. Marcet" is from the same source page 394. https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.153548/page/n409/mode/2up? "Prelude to Power Micheal Faraday Celebration" is wonderful and simple: https://youtu.be/mxwVIOHEG4I?si=ATi6VUX0rlVCW7bW "Faraday's Chemical History of the Candle" is also great: https://youtu.be/RrHnLXMTOWM?si=mZimblt6Q-c0a-hP "Electrodynamic Waves by Sir Lawrence Bragg" is fantastic too: https://youtu.be/Vwjcn4Vl2iw?si=uEhHga4ZJRwZ5jU- My video deriving Maxwell's equations (I am very proud of this one): "Maxwell's Equations Explained" https://youtu.be/aFYKKSoXC5Y?si=TVbItWG3BY1pRjZR LINKS for Kathy: Website: https://bit.ly/GoKathyLovesPhysics The Lightning Tamers book: https://amzn.to/3I7N4mq Go Fund Me (for Audio book): https://bit.ly/DonateforAudiobook Patreon: https://bit.ly/KathyLovesPhysicsPatreon </video> <video> History of CRT Televisions with Dave Jones (EEVblog 1577) [CC] Description: Dave Jones @EEVblog generously gave me permission to publish our fun conversation on the history of CRT television on my channel.

It is about what I love, based on many 1980s movies that inspired me including: "Ferris Bueler's Day Off," "Real Genius," "It's Never Better Off Dead" and more. By the way, the part of the video with the popcorn is from "Real Genius" and the song "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is about climate change. I hope you enjoy this little video as much as I did in making it. Cheers, Kathy Loves Physics ps. I didn't add commercials so I can use clips without reference. Also, originally, I complained about Richard Feynmann, but I realized it came off as mean, so that is why so many people are talking about him in the comments. </video> <video> "Kathy Loves Physics" Live! April 2, San Francisco Description: On April 2, 2023, I will give a combination of book talk and performance art about the electricity wizards of the 1700s. (Will be livestreamed as well) Purchase tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-fascinating-influential-electric-wizards-of-the-enlightenment-tickets-546490847837?aff=escb&utm-source=cp&utm-term=listing&utm-campaign=social&utm-medium=discovery&utm-content=attendeeshare </video> <video> Kathy Loves Physics Live! Crazy Electricity Wizards of the 1700s Description: This is going to be one of those "facts are stranger than fiction" sort of talks. I focus on 4 different "Wizards": - a German man named Matthais Bose who made electricity fashionable with electric kisses and bad poetry - a Frenchman named Abbe Nollet who used electricity to move up in the cutthroat world of Versailles in France - Nollet's American rival Benjamin Franklin (yes, that Franklin) who stole his thunder and - an Italian genius named Laura Bassi whose work ended up accidentally leading to the electric battery! If you want to see it live the talk on Sunday April 2, 2023 at 4 pm at 2266 California Street (California street and Webster) kathylovesphysics.eventbrite.com </video>
