About:

The winning topic this year was The Science of Sight and Sound . Thank you for voting on this special topic!

When light (physical electromagnetic waves) enters our eyes or sound (physical vibrations moving through air) enters our ears, these sensory organs send signals to our brains, which try to interpret these signals into our perceptions of sight and sound. We'll discuss and experiment with some of the physical properties of light and sound, the mechanisms of how we see and hear, and how our senses can sometimes be tricked.
