Guided Tour.

"Cette visite vous dévoilera l’histoire des alchimistes, ces magiciens des temps anciens qui ont inspiré de grandes œuvres, de Victor Hugo à Harry Potter. Apprentis alchimistes, suivez le chemin initiatique tracé jadis par Nicolas Flamel, et laissez-vous conter les enseignements philosophiques de Maître Albert dans le Quartier Latin. Tel Saint Michel, apprenez à maîtriser le dragon, la part sombre qui sommeille en vous. Laissez-vous entraîner dans une quête ésotérique, philosophique et passionnante, pleine d’histoire et de magie."

"In addition to its reputation for academic excellence, the University of Oxford possesses extraordinary library and museum collections that document the history of the world and provide vital support to the University’s teaching. The Cabinet project aims to make these resources more accessible for teaching and research through digitisation (both 2D and 3D) and bringing these resources into a single intuitive and interactive interface. The main aim is to embed images and objects from collections in Oxford and elsewhere more seamlessly into teaching and learning, from tutorial to lecture room, enriching the sources available to students and tutors.

The Cabinet platform provides tools for the exploration, annotation and discussion of collections from Oxford and externally. Designed from the beginning to work seamlessly with mobile devices, it can be used to zoom, spin, annotate and discuss sources, increasing the potential for fruitful individual and collective study. The ease of navigation between sources encourages new connections to be made and new insights to be shared by students and tutors alike.  In June 2017, Cabinet was the winner of an OxTALENT Award.

A major feature of Cabinet is the ability to explore full-colour 3D models of objects, ranging from minute artefacts a few centimetres across to entire monuments from the Oxford landscape. Oxford Internet Institute researchers are using Cabinet to learn more about the ways in which both staff and students interact with museum collections in the digital environment."

"The interiors inhabited by the alchemists in the work of the Dutch artist Thomas Wijck (1616–1677) are fascinating and complex. Scattered with the tools and props of the alchemist’s trade, Wijck’s laboratories are messy spaces that privilege making and experimentation alongside creative enterprise and innovation. The alchemists who command these workrooms are not foolhardy or morally corrupt, but serious-minded, respectable individuals whose work was embedded in local and global exchanges of knowledge. Wijck’s paintings remind us of the parallels between the alchemist’s pursuit and the painter’s craft – how the grinding of pigments and mixing of solvents gave way to rich imagery of the visible world. The intersection of art and alchemy is reflected in the career of Wijck himself, an understudied artist who carefully built an artistic and professional identity around the depiction of alchemists in the early modern Netherlands."

"In this talk, Tim Chesters will share one of the newly-discovered secrets of the Fellows' Library, and through it tell the story of one of Clare [College, Cambridge’s] most colourful Fellows. Piecing together some extraordinarily densely annotated books from the collection, the history of chemical experimentation, Tudor medicine, letters from the College archive, the College silver, a memorial sculpture, and an East London pub, the talk will show how Clare may hold the key to one of the most intriguing mysteries in the history of English alchemy."

"I’m going back in time to the early 16th century, to look at the ideas and practices of one of the greatest polymaths, alchemists, magicians, physicians and Rosicrucian’s of the past. An inspiration for the German Renaissance and someone who embodied the Italian Renaissance and great thinkers like, Marsilio Ficino and Pico della Mirandola, Paracelsus. I will also compare these ideas to the eastern streams which I believe they flowed from. There is a lot we can learn from the past that is relevant today."
