Description

TAO magicians will allure students with tricks, puzzles and illusions using ordinary objects found in the home. The tricks offer a fun way to observe scientific principals in action while learning the mechanics of magic. While performed hundreds of times a year, this program is offered in person virtually as well as a pre-recorded version of the program. We focus on scientific principles that are understood at an elementary level through illusions, how gravity works, and simple techniques that can be replicated at home. Over 15 tricks are performed explained how each performed trick has science concepts involved in the performance.
