Darwin's Favourite Photo (feat. Hank Green) - Objectivity 196

[@Quokkat7]

An American, an australian and a british walk into the royal society ...

[@teleny2]

A Welshman, at that!

[@hyekang3850]

Was Darwin himself an Englishman?? Welsh ? Scottish? Irish?? ....

[@startrek2365]

I would totally listen to Kieth read audio books.

[@WilliamMcCluskey13]

For 22 seconds, and then fall into a gentle and restorative sleep.

[@MNalias]

Hank Green got to meet Keith? What an honour for him.

[@hankschannel]

Right!?

[@EcceJack]

Honestly, when I happened to be at the Royal Society at a meeting a few years ago, I was particularly keen to meet, if at all possible, Keith of all people :D
(and I did! And I was basically a bit star-struck)

I get the feeling that Keith is 100% ok with Benjamin Franklin helping to lead a huge rebellion against the British Crown, but will never forgive him for writing on his books.

[@qwertyTRiG]

Marginalia is cool.

[@mikededmon]

"Benjamin Franklin did, but he's an American" - ROFL AND Keith should do book narration for these. He's so good.

[@wierdalien1]

He is so brutal

[@Jesse__H]

That understated caustic British wit 😁

[@ngtszyu]

He looks really upset by Benjamin Franklin lol

[@54321emb]

this video is great for several reasons, 1. good art and science 2. good fun 3. Keith's SICK BURN at the end

[@ObjectivityVideos]

We can’t control Keith. He’s a law unto himself.

[@Dwumper]

I know that this is one of your smaller channels but by far my favourite. I love seeing bits of this immense collection with Keith. Keep it up Brady.

[@ObjectivityVideos]

Thanks for supporting it with your time and kind comment. - Brady

The moment it was mentioned that Faraday borrowed a copper plate I imagined something fishy was going on, and of course it was not returned, and that amuses me.
I wonder if whatever exeriment that plate ended up being involved in was recorded.

Omg you got Hank Green to come for a video! That's great! :D

[@ObjectivityVideos]

He was very generous with his time. It was a busy day for him.

[@shookings]

Keith's jab at Americans. Gold.

[@steve1978ger]

Also on the signatory list is William Whewell, who apparently introduced the words "scientist" and "ion", and died in a fall from his horse.

[@wierdalien1]

This time on Keith is brutal comes the insult of America

[@rickyoswald]

I love the way they keep giving internet analogies to him.

Watching Keith repeatedly mispronounce Audubon's name, an American, is justice.

I mean if it's true, would you really call it an insult?

[@SpeakShibboleth]

Listening to Hank Green speak so softly and slowly is a weird experience. I'm way too used to his upbeat mannerisms.

[@nrp_g]

Has Journey to the Microcosmos made you any more familiar with the experience?

[@tdgtroy]

Brady is a great co-host

[@ObjectivityVideos]

Thanks Tim.

[@AlaricXIII]

Hank seems like Brady's only competition when it comes to volume of youtube stuff.

[@archockencanto1645]

Have you ears about Simon Whistler?

To think: There were few enough photographs of you that you could easily identify the *ONE* that you liked the best! 😆

[@ObjectivityVideos]

The good old days.

[@idontwanttopickone]

9:10 - Audible should totally make this happen. Seems like a good way for them to get some free advertising and make something positive happen. Film the process, a bit of discussion about the book, a great video or mini series.

Julia Margaret Cameron has tagged you in a photo.
Charles Darwin likes this post.

Hank has indeed shown up on Objectivity as the prophecies have fortold... nice

[@ZeedijkMike]

It might be a small detail - but I love the way you highlight the names in the books. Subtle but so efficient.
And, of course, the content is great.

It's a small detail but I love how you spelled 'subtle'.

[@MrARock001]

I love how the one host has gloves on, but the curator is just touching everything with his bare hands.

[@qwertyuoip1234]

Objectivity is so nice.

[@celtgunn9775]

Keith is much like me, I truly detest defacement of books. Ugh! Especially these great books being put in this library for everyone's use, that is so unfortunate. I can understand doing such a thing to your own books, but to do such to the books you check out or borrow is just wrong.

[@una_10bananas]

So when are we getting the Keith audiobook

[@GuilhermeHarrison]

I'd love to know the last book he borrowed there. Could give a sense of what he was working on.

I came for Darvin and found Faraday. but i can imagine what Farady did to the copper plate, he was like what happen if I pass high current through the copper plate.(turns switch on) "BOOM" :( Melted copper chunk

[@simil-kung5610]

I am quite amazed that Keith isn’t wearing gloves when touching all these important books.

[@tnmoe-]

Cool objects, and nice to see that dude not talking a mile a minute for once.

Audubon: Professional Emo Scientist

[@ianmelzer]

Isaac - is it pronounced eye-zek or eye-zac? In America I hear it mostly as eyezek with no break between the syllables, but when I hear British people say Sir Isaac Newton they seem to say "Sir eye·zak Newton" or "eyes·ack" enunciating each syllable separately, which seems little more grandiose. Is it a Newton specific thing?

[@MarcoRoepers]

Was dr. Livingstone a member of the Royal Society?

[@mikel1876]

I find it interesting that Keith does not wear gloves when handling these old books.

[@HermanVonPetri]

Current best practice is to not wear gloves when you need to turn pages in old books. Cotton gloves don't give you enough sensation to know when you are about to rip the page, and rubber or synthetic gloves cause your hands to sweat too much. It's now recommended to just wash and thoroughly dry your hands before handling paper artifacts, but different museums have different guidelines.

[@mikel1876]

Thanks for info. That makes a lot of sense.

[@mimasweets]

is Keith ever gonna retire or is it a position for life?

[@frankharr9466]

That was fun. And it was a great photograph.
But who's the guy in the green shirt?

[@Nilguiri]

So, Faraday was a bit of a tea leaf!

[@ibgmbl]

This is so cool

[@donjones4719]

The iconic representations of Darwin have a problem in common with the ones of Einstein: the young man who made the revolutionary breakthroughs isn't represented.
The very best likeness of Darwin is a pencil sketch done by George Richmond in 1839 and is little known. It's now in the Cambridge University Library. Richmond's 1840 paintings are well known but have nowhere near the fine detail of this sketch. One really gets a feel for the man, the personality. *This* is who made the breakthrough just 2 years before (as recorded in the famous p 36 of Notebook B), and it was only in 1839 that he felt he'd properly worked out "a theory by which to work."
I was fortunate enough to see this in the Manuscripts Room at the Cambridge University Library. The CUL has this online but with a low pixel count. Findable using "CUL Richmond sketch of Darwin 1839". Should be the first result. I think "Mr Objectivity" could get a look at it.

[@robertconklin3322]

I loved this one, as I did all the prior episodes. However as an american I particularly enjoyed the last line. It's fair enough! Wink.

[@heyandy889]

Alright I gotta ask ... at the end is that a friendly jab at the Americans? Is that like how we would say y'all just sit around and drink tea and bow to the queen? Or is there something of substance there - do UK people (or maybe just Keith) think Americans are rude and don't pay attention to rules?

[@NoobLord98]

Not british, but I think it's a friendly jab at America although it has to be said that there is a general sentiment outside of America that a lot of Americans are arrogant, which a rules-aren't-for-me-attitude does kind of imply.

[@YouTubemessedupmyhandle]

Tasking the piss is a sign of affection. Usually.

[@jaystevens137]

As an American, I'd say there are, unfortunately, a large number of us who are rude and don't pay attention to the rules.
