Creative Thinking Workshop -- The Patent Clerk Method
Small group (max 5). I'll teach you how to do thought experiments: isolate a problem, strip it to essentials, follow the logic to impossible conclusions, then ask why they're impossible. This is how I found special relativity. This is how you solve any problem where the conventional answer feels wrong. Bring a notebook. Bring a problem. Leave with a new way to think.
Bifocal Lens Demonstration & Fitting
I got tired of switching between two pairs of glasses -- one for reading, one for distance. So I cut the lenses in half and combined them. Revolutionary? No. Practical? Enormously. This workshop covers basic optics, lens grinding principles, and why bifocals work. Tip: The best inventions solve annoyances, not emergencies.
Empire Administration Seminar -- Yasa Law & Governance
I conquered the world and governed it. The Yasa established religious freedom, diplomatic immunity, meritocracy, and a continental postal relay. Tip: Conquer with the sword, govern with the law. An empire held only by fear will not survive its founder.
Chemistry Lab Fundamentals -- Precision & Safety
Small group (max 4). Proper lab technique: titration, crystallization, fractional precipitation, safe handling of chemicals. I'll teach you the way I learned at the Sorbonne -- hands on, precise, no shortcuts. You will weigh to four decimal places. You will label every beaker. You will keep a proper lab notebook. Sloppiness in a lab kills people. I should know.
Impi Formation Drill -- Bull Horn Tactics
Group training (12-20 people). The bull horn formation: the chest pins the enemy, the left and right horns encircle. The loins wait in reserve facing away so they do not grow anxious. Commands by runner. We drill barefoot -- I threw away my warriors' sandals. Tip: A warrior who cannot run 50 miles cannot fight.
Escape & Evasion Tactics -- Guerrilla Warfare Seminar
Half-day seminar on guerrilla tactics. How 70 escaped slaves outran and outfought professional legions. Route selection, foraging, decoy camps, fighting withdrawal. Tip: Speed is armor. If they cannot find you, they cannot kill you.
Film Music Composition Workshop -- Scoring Your Own Film
I composed the music for my later films because nobody else could hear what I heard. Indian classical ragas, Western orchestration, and folk melodies -- all serving the image. We study the sitar-and-flute scoring of the Apu Trilogy and learn to write music that enhances without overpowering. Tip: The best film music makes you forget it's there.
Improvisation for Film Actors -- Finding the Moment
Film improv is not comedy improv. It's about being so deeply in character that when the script breaks, you don't. The 'I coulda been a contender' speech in On the Waterfront -- half of that was written, half was felt. Learn to blur the line.
Phalanx Formation Workshop -- Team Combat Drills
Group session (8-16 people). Learn the Spartan phalanx -- shield wall, spear discipline, advance and retreat as one body. Tip: The phalanx is not a formation. It is a contract. Every man protects the man beside him. Break the contract and the line breaks.
