Can you trust your eyes? How does our perception come about, and why does our brain sometimes deceive us? In this extraordinary show, physicist and magician Thomas Fraps combines astonishing illusions with fascinating scientific insights.

Experience how your brain constructs a picture of reality from sensory impressions—and how easily it can be deceived in the process. Whether objects appear out of thin air, drawings suddenly come to life, or optical and acoustic illusions put our perception to the test: magic playfully demonstrates that our senses don’t always tell the whole truth.

Throughout the performance, Thomas Fraps takes us on a magical journey through various fields of research, such as molecular biology, neuroscience, quantum physics, and artificial intelligence. With wit, astonishing experiments, and scientific insight, Thomas Fraps makes complex topics understandable and entertaining. A show that amazes, makes you think, and invites you to participate—for young and old alike.
