A Night of Illusions

Sydney Science Festival favourite “A Night of Illusions” returns in 2018 with an even bigger array of mind-bending exhibits.

Baffle your senses with an evening of tactile and visual illusions. Watch static images move and twist before your very own eyes. Feel your body change size and shape. Immerse yourself in the bizarre sensory world of animals in which perception determines your fate. We invite you to step into a realm that will challenge your assumptions and mess with your perceived reality. Trust us - you will never see the world the same again.

Attendees will have the opportunity to experience illusions firsthand and discuss what’s going on in their head with leading scientists in the fields of human and animal perception.
