Morag Hickman is curating a '''Physics of Sound''' session which will be executed by a few attending Hackspace members. They will attempt to convey basic aspects of sound, pitch, resonance, and related concepts with a series of exciting demonstrations and in a language appropriate for younger children. Morag is a physicist who most recently explained particle physics using Lego bricks at the Big Bang Science Fair. The full details of this session will be revealed on the day, but here is a sneak preview of a non-Newtonian fluid experiment we tried this Tuesday: http://vimeo.com/23255137 | Morag Hickman is curating a '''Physics of Sound''' session which will be executed by a few attending Hackspace members.
