Christmas markets tend to involve a lot of arts, crafts and scented soaps. But a new festive market that's popped-up in Russell Square in London is taking a much more scientific approach. Hosted by [‘So Far, The Future'](http://www.so-far-the-future.co.uk/?ref=protein.xyz), the market features a wide range of science and design themed gifts with specially curated spaces from science and design collectives. [Super/Collider](http://www.super-collider.com/?ref=protein.xyz), for instance, is selling a range of screenprints and science-themed recycled stationary, while [Luminous Books](http://luminousbooks.tumblr.com/?ref=protein.xyz) is selling a selection of vintage astronomy and science books.

There's also the [Original Egg-Bot](http://egg-bot.com/?ref=protein.xyz), a robotic device that can draw on spherical objects, which people can use to personalise their own christmas baubles with everything from a simple etch-a-sketch design to more complex patterns.

The fair is only open for two more days so head down to 44 Emerald Street WC1N to check it out.
