Public Event Workshops
When we organise public engagement events with the Imperial College Outreach department. Most often we run workshops where participants build their own spectroscopes, while we discuss with them all aspects of our research. We have run these workshops, each with hundreds of visitors, at the:
- Imperial Lates (2025)
- Great Exhibition Road Festival (2022)
- Imperial College Festival (2018)


Interested in building your own spectroscope?
We have the materials online and printable. This is our article in an Imperial College outreach magazine package sent to 1500 families of the White City area during Christmas of 2023, it also contains what inspired one of our PhD students to pursue our research. After printing the final page (on harder paper preferably), all you need are scissors, glue/tape, and a CD (DVD or Blu-ray disc should also work).
