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.
