Oxford Leftovers: Museum of the History of Science

Описание: The Museum of the History of Science, located in Broad Street, Oxford, is home to an unrivalled collection of scientific instruments from medieval times to the 17th century. Its collection of 18th and 19th-century instruments is also substantial. It is the world's oldest surviving purpose-built museum building.

I had some footage left over from my stay in Oxford in 2011 so I decided to put together this video of my visit to the Museum of the History of Science. The emphasis lies a bit towards the radios and early transmitters because this is an area of science that I am particularly fond of. I used to build valve transmitters myself for pirate radio stations. I also love the old valve driven electronics. It's so crude and easily understandable and it's just almost romantic to see these valves glow blue when the current runs through them.

This is the first video I edited in the new Premiere Pro CS6 version and I must say editing becomes a real delight with this software. Plus it rendered out in less than 20 minutes which, for my laptop, is super fast :)
