Illusion: Nothing Is As It Seems
1875 El Prado, San Diego, 92101
Cost: $13
Created by Science Gallery at Trinity College Dublin, ILLUSION playfully combines techniques used by magicians and explored by neuroscientists to uncover the many ways our minds are fooled by sensory deception.
ILLUSION joins magic with psychology, optical illusions with scientific reasoning and confusion with clarity. More than 20 intriguing exhibits deceive the eyes of the visitor, showing that what we perceive is often radically different from the reality we observe. ILLUSION will distort your senses and mystify your mind.
