  2. I found out today that the wee kirk at Corsock, which was campaigned for and funded in part by James Clerk Maxwell and his father.  It contains a stained glass window tribute to JCM.

    Videos about JCM in link below.

  3. You might know the Beatles song Maxwell’s Silver Hammer. (Not one of their seminal works, one might think.) Is the Maxwell in question James Clerk? OK, not that fun so far, but here comes the bombshell:

    The Finnish version of the song is called Paulin Taikakaulin, which means Pauli’s Magic Rolling Pin. Can this Pauli be anyone except Wolfgang? Another physicist! Deep.

  8. 'For the sound of a chorus of voices

    Came gathering up from below, 

    And I heard how all Nature rejoices

    And moves with a musical flow.

    I would barter the world and its glory

    That vision of joy to prolong, 

    Or to hear and remember the story

     That lies in the heart of their song.'

  9. Doing some #research and came across this #poem by #physicist #JamesClerkMaxwell
    #history #stem #Scotland #physics

    'Alone on a hillside of heather,

    I lay with dark thoughts in my mind; 

    In the midst of the beautiful weather 

    I was deaf, I was dumb, I was blind.

    I knew not the glories around me,

    I counted the world as it seems, 

    Till a spirit of melody found me,

     And taught me in visions and dreams.'
