Tide Pool Ecology Kit (Marine Biology Starter)
Clear observation containers, pH strips, salinity meter, waterproof ID cards for intertidal species, and a guide to tide pool ecology. The tide pool is a complete world in miniature. Everything connects. Disturb one species and watch the cascade. This is what Silent Spring was about -- scaled up to continents.
Chemistry of Energetic Materials -- Safe Demonstration
Safe demonstrations of exothermic reactions, combustion chemistry, and energy release. No explosives -- but you will understand why nitroglycerin is unstable and how adding diatomaceous earth makes it safe to handle. The chemistry of energy storage and release underpins everything from batteries to rockets.
Pattern Recognition Seminar -- Finding Order in Chaos
Small group (max 4). Not just chemistry -- the skill of finding patterns in any dataset. I will give you messy data and teach you to sort, classify, and predict. The periodic table was a pattern recognition exercise. The same skill applies to business data, medical records, financial trends, or any complex system.
Accessibility Design Workshop -- Building for Everyone
Small group (max 5). Think about accessibility from the start, not as an afterthought. Blindfold exercises, navigation challenges, communication without sight. When you design for the most constrained user, you improve the experience for everyone. Curb cuts were designed for wheelchairs. Everyone uses them.
Organ Concert & Music Lesson (Beginner)
I was the organist at the Church of Saint-Nicolas-des-Champs in Paris. I also developed Braille music notation so blind musicians could read scores. This lesson covers basic organ technique and an introduction to reading music by touch.
Television History & Electronics Workshop
How I built the first electronic TV. Electron beams, phosphor screens, scanning patterns. We will build a simple cathode ray demonstration and understand how 525 lines of light become a moving picture.
Interchangeable Parts Workshop -- Birth of Mass Production
Small group (max 4). Make identical parts using jigs and fixtures, then assemble them randomly. Any part fits any assembly. This is the foundation of all modern manufacturing.
Advanced Physics Tutoring -- Quantum Theory
One-on-one. Schrodinger equation, matrix mechanics, perturbation theory, angular momentum. Prerequisite: calculus and linear algebra. Not easy. But beautiful.
Sterile Technique Workshop -- Infection Prevention
Hands-on aseptic technique: surgical scrub, gloving, draping, instrument sterilization, wound cleaning. Before carbolic acid, half of surgical patients died from infection. Surgeons operated in frock coats stiff with dried blood.
Microscopy Workshop -- Seeing Germs
Hands-on microscopy. Prepare slides, stain bacteria, observe microorganisms that cause infection. My father improved the microscope lens. I used the improved microscope to see what was killing surgical patients. One generation builds the tool, the next uses it.
Women in STEM Mentoring -- Credit and Recognition
One-on-one mentoring. My work was used without my knowledge. My contribution was minimized for decades. I will teach you how to protect your intellectual contribution: documentation, publication timing, co-authorship agreements, and when to speak up. The work is everything, but credit matters too.
Heavy Bag (100lb Leather) + Speed Bag Station
Professional-grade heavy bag and speed bag mounted on a steel frame. The heavy bag teaches power. The speed bag teaches timing. Use both. I hit these every morning before sunrise and have since 1962.
