Wind Tunnel (Tabletop, Educational Model)
Scaled replica of the wind tunnel Wilbur and I built from a starch box. Test wing shapes, measure lift and drag. We tested 200 airfoils in two months with a rig like this. Every aircraft flying today traces back to data from this box. Includes smoke wand for flow visualization.
Fermentation Science Workshop -- Grapes to Wine to Vinegar
Hands-on. We will ferment grape juice, observe yeast under the microscope, test for alcohol and acetic acid. This is how I started -- wine merchants of Lille asked why their fermentations kept failing. The answer was contaminating microorganisms. Clean your equipment. Always.
Microscope Slide Preparation Workshop
Learn professional slide prep: fixation, staining (Gram, methylene blue, crystal violet), mounting, labeling. Proper staining is the difference between seeing nothing and everything. Techniques from the Pasteur Institute.

Advanced Mathematics Tutoring -- Vectors and Fields
One-on-one tutoring in vector calculus, field theory, and differential equations. The mathematics behind electromagnetism, fluid dynamics, and gravity. I will teach you to see equations as pictures and pictures as equations. If you can visualize a field, you can understand any force in nature.
Element Sample Collection (Safe, 30 Elements)

Large-Format Flower Painting Workshop
We paint flowers big enough that people have to stop and look. Six-foot canvases. Close-up. No background. Just the flower filling your entire field of vision. Bring your own flowers -- the ones from your garden, not the florist. Real ones.
Effects Pedals Masterclass -- Wah, Fuzz, Feedback
Wah-wah, fuzz face, Uni-Vibe, Octavia. I turned noise into music. I'll show you how each pedal works, how to chain them, and how to use feedback as an instrument. The Star-Spangled Banner at Woodstock was feedback, distortion, and the sound of a nation tearing itself apart.
Vocal Coaching -- Finding Your Voice (Rock, Gospel, Country)
I started singing gospel in church. I ended singing everything. I'll help you find your voice -- not my voice, YOUR voice. We work on breath control, vibrato, and the thing nobody teaches: vulnerability. If you're not scared when you sing, you're not singing hard enough.
