Ian will set up a microscope connected to a video camera and show some demonstrations from his popular Blown-up Biology Show. As people watch, and while interacting conversationally with his audience, he will quickly prepare microscope slides from various cultures of living microscopic organisms and show them spectacularly magnified on a large screen. You will see breath-taking views of Euglena, Volvox, Spirogyra, Paramecium, Amoeba, Hydra, Daphnia and human cells donated by a brave volunteer.

Magnetism and electricity.
You can`t see, hear or smell them. But they are always around us. In this session I would like to show you small experiments which make these phenomenas more understandable. We will also have a look at how magnetism and electricity are connected. And we will even build a tiny electromotor. Welcome!

We will explore experiments related with electricity and light to show how to engage visitors into challenges and into “do it together” activities. Our proposal is to make simple kits with low cost materials related with our society and to develop an approach based on science applications that are used by participants in their day life.

Suiting this year’s motto “life” I would like to invite you to explore various experiments with air. The highlight is a hairdryer competition. There you get to set your own record in navigating a ball through a course of tubes with the help of a hairdryer only.
