Engaging Audiences with Hands-On Fluids Experiments
Channel: ucla spinlab

Here we show two short snippets of video with Sam May (2016 B.S., UCLA Physics) engaging interested early career scientists using the "White Whale" 1m diameter rotating table at UCLA's Explore Your Universe event in 2015 (https://www.exploringyouruniverse.org/).  In addition, there are some still images at the end showing participants interacting with smaller record player sized experiments.  Emilly Hawkins (2019 Ph.D., UCLA Geophysics) is shown in two of those pics working the wheels of steel. 

For instructions on how to build your own rotating demonstration table (out of LEGOs no less), please see https://diynamics.github.io/.

Disclaimer: The audio is missing on the second video clip with Sam.  It is the best part, where everyone discusses the resulting flows.  But, at present, I cannot fix that issue.  The audio is fine on the file I am uploading... (?).
