Sie führen und verführen zum Nachdenken und wecken den Erfindergeist. Naturwissenschaftliche Phänomene und mathematische Zusammenhänge werden durch das Experimentieren lebendig und spontan verständlich. Was kann man tun? Vielleicht erst mal kurz im Fakirbett auf über 100 Nagelspitzen entspannen. Danach auf der singenden Eisenplatte Töne in den Sand malen oder lieber sich selbst in eine gigantische Seifenblase verfrachten und schauen, wie es draußen aussieht. Und zum Schluss großes Kino erleben: Eine spannende Expedition ins Begehbare Auge bringt grundlegende Einsichten in die Physik des Sehens. Das alles und noch viel mehr lassen Mathematik, Informatik, Naturwissenschaften und Technik lebendig werden.
