Science
Circus: Step Right Up! is the latest traveling
exhibition of The Mind Museum, showcasing the amusing, the peculiar, and the
extraordinary in our everyday experiences, in the form of interactive exhibits
that deceive the senses and boggle the mind. Be ready to #EnterTheScienceCircus this coming October 28, 2016!
While the nearly
250-year history of the circus abounds with awe-inspiring demonstrations of
physical skill – such as high-flying aerial artists, to death-defying
daredevils – the Science Circus challenges our traditional notions of a circus
by focusing on the mind’s “acrobatic” perceptual tricks.
As the guests
enter the exhibition, they are welcomed by a festive, colorful façade which
sets the tone for the sights and sounds they are about to experience. These
interactive exhibits are displayed simultaneously in three adjacent Rings.
Guests can go in any of the Rings in the order they please.
Ring
One, or Deception Perception is a menagerie of exhibits that will prompt you to
question whether to see is to believe. Can you always trust your senses? Is
what you see as real as it seems? Can your brain produce motion where there is
none? Your first venture into the Circus will unveil the “blindness” of your
mind’s eye.
Ring
Two
highlights Pieces of Incredible
Engineering, where guests can engage their minds in puzzles and relish how
math and art come together. This central area is animated by simple machines,
and engages guests in activities that evoke their inner engineer.
Last but not
least, Ring Three is Encounters with the Masters, where
guests can interact with and learn the secrets of the Masters of Illusion. They
can take on the challenges posed by each Master, and discover how our brains
can be ensnared by smoke and mirrors.
The Science
Circus: Step Right Up! exhibition vividly illustrates how our everyday
experiences are full of delightful secrets that we can uncover, to discover
more about ourselves and the world around us.
