What is The Oratory Laboratory?
Being invited to speak at an event can be a great honour
but the reality often less glamorous.
The Oratory Laboratory recognises that many people are either too busy, unsure of what to say or too nervous to give the show stopping performance expected of them by anxious brides, expectant business partners or bar-mitzvah mothers.
The very first of its kind, The Laboratory is a personalised boutique service that works on every aspect of the speech-giving process; a process we refer to as “Speechification”. We work with our clients to create content that is original, appropriately humorous or sensitive and we ensure a confident and charismatic delivery.

It is the manuscript for what would become a biography of Newton entitled Memoirs of Sir Isaac Newton's Life written by William Stukeley, an archaeologist and one of Newton's first biographers, and published in 1752. Newton told the apple story to Stukeley, who relayed it as such:
"After dinner, the weather being warm, we went into the garden and drank thea, under the shade of some apple trees...he told me, he was just in the same situation, as when formerly, the notion of gravitation came into his mind. It was occasion'd by the fall of an apple, as he sat in contemplative mood. Why should that apple always descend perpendicularly to the ground, thought he to himself..."

The Royal Society has made the manuscript available today for the first time in a fully interactive digital form
on their website at royalsociety.org/turning-the-pages.

I’m currently spending 3 months in a tent in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica, and these are my thoughts and experiences of the whole endeavor. Feel free to ask any questions you might have about living in the Valleys or about the work we do. Check for updates frequently and track my descent into madness.
