Pilgrimage mode: kilt on, chapeau secured, and I’m standing outside 14 India Street, Edinburgh — the birthplace of the physicist I’d nominate as the quiet GOAT: James Clerk Maxwell.
In this solo vlog, I walk the neighbourhood where Maxwell grew up, try (and fail) to get into the small museum without a reservation, and connect the dots from Maxwell’s equations to the modern world: Wi-Fi, GPS, power grids, and yes… a Tesla charging across the street from his childhood home.
CHAPTERS
00:00 Kilted pilgrimage begins
00:32 Maxwell’s Edinburgh origin story (and my museum plea)
01:27 Tesla charging across from Maxwell’s house
02:24 The prodigy years + Cambridge arc
03:00 Maxwell as “natural philosopher” + why he matters now
04:33 “Let there be light” (and what the equations really changed)
06:25 Ether, gears, and the bridge to modern physics
