Join the Ri Demo team and Innovator in Residence David Ricketts, as they reimagine the Faraday classic Christmas Lecture - A chemical History of the candle. Originally delivered by Faraday in a series of 6 lectures, the chemical history was the most popular Christmas lecture Faraday gave, with over 700 people in attendance when he last delivered it in 1861. The RI demo team takes a modern interpretation of Faraday's original lecture and demonstration, to deliver Faradays' original series into a single lecture. They have curated an amazing array of demos to teach the physics and chemistry of the simple candle, of the physical world and life. This one-night-only performance combined the historical feel and vibe of the Ri as it was in 1861 with modern science concepts and new demonstrations. This lecture includes many loud noises, bright lights and surprises...oh, and several very large fires! -- Prof David Ricketts is the Innovator in Resdience at the Ri and an Innovation Fellow in the Technology and Entrepreneurship Centre at Harvard University. He works with organisations around the globe, such as Mastercard, Ubisoft, Disney, General Motors, Dell and Ferarri to accelerate innovation. David is also an accomplished academic, having his work appear twice in Nature as well as other distinguished publications and books. He is recipient of the National Science Foundation (US) CAREER award and the DARPA Young Faculty Award for his work on nano-electromagnetic devices. His innovations include a re-programmable, self-assembling matter, an American football tracking for sports visualisation with Disney/ESPN, and an advanced wireless power systems for next-generation cars with General Motors Research. -- The Ri is on Twitter:   / ri_science   and Facebook:   / royalinstitution   and TikTok:   / ri_science   Listen to the Ri podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/sh...
