The world is full of wonder. In nature, ideas, actions, design and science. This series is all about the “wow” in life. It features things that seem to defy the norm, the tricks that nature plays and the ways we can trick each other. A range of stories, examples and explorations are presented to make us wonder, enlighten us and to challenge our senses. The series covers topics including: Art & Design & Performance illusions and Nature Tricks. When we place ourselves inside art and design our perspective is challenged. How do our brains work to make sense of what seems to be impossible? Like animals we can trick each other, but more for fun and to excite our senses than for survival. Why is it that you can watch a game of cards and miss the gorilla walking through the room or listen to an audio track and hear something other than what was recorded? Let’s test our senses.
