Have you ever wondered how a magician pulls off a trick? Is it magic - or science? Visitors will enjoy an evening of jaw-dropping trickery and sleight-of-hand inspired by the Whipple Museum's collection of historic scientific instruments and models. Magicians from Cambridge's very own Hogwarts, the Academy of Magic and Science, reveal how Science and Magic are linked in helping us understand the world around us.
With the help of astonishing tricks and interactive performances, attendees will find out some of the scientific principles behind illusion, perception and bias.
