During the 'Lemniscate Cascade' #workshop, Evelina Domnitch & Dmitry Gelfand, will reveal how light can stir a liquid crystal solution and induce a state of life-like self-organisation.
Different wavelengths and intensities of light will be used to activate a variety of fluid dynamic phenomena. Further experiments will be conducted in order to synchronously sonify these emerging interactions.

De 16 à 18h, rejoignez-nous pour une visite guidée spéculative et unique en son genre ; une exploration la logique du vivant sous un angle inédit. Une Nature Parallèle, fictionnelle, à la fois amusante et troublante, riche et absurde, mais qui, en fin de compte, parle toujours du réel.
The guided tour will take place in French. Free access!
