Embark on a journey through the spectrum of perception and understanding with "Opticks," a podcast that delves into the interplay between light, vision, and the wonders of the natural world. Each episode features a new complete audiobook, inviting listeners to explore themes of observation, interpretation, and the intricate relationships between humanity and the environment. This rotating collection showcases a diverse array of works that illuminate the ways in which light shapes our experiences and knowledge, both scientifically and philosophically. From the exploration of optical phenomena to the significance of color and clarity in the natural world, these unique explorations challenge us to reconsider our perceptions and the insights they yield. Discover a new book with every episode, and broaden your appreciation for the illuminating power of nature and thought.

27 AUG 2026 · The famous physicist Sir Isaac Newton lectured on optics from 1670 - 1672. He worked on refraction of light into colored beams using prisms and discovered chromatic aberration. He also postulated the corpuscular form of light and an ether to transmit forces between the corpuscles. His "Opticks", first published 1704 contains his postulates about the topic. This is the fourth edition in English, from 1730, which Newton himself had corrected from the third edition before his death. (Summary by Availle)
