MANILA, Philippines – Be ready to #EnterTheScienceCircus!
Science Circus: Step Right Up! is the 5th traveling exhibition of
The Mind Museum,
supported
in part by Mastercard, Limkaco Industries, Uratex, and Thompson Hardware and
Lighting Center.
The Science
Circus: Step Right Up! showcases the amusing, the peculiar, and the
extraordinary in our everyday experiences, in the form of interactive exhibits
that deceive the senses and boggle the mind.
While the
nearly 250-year history of the circus abounds with awe-inspiring demonstrations
of physical skill – such as high-flying aerial artists, to death-defying
daredevils – the Science Circus challenges our traditional notions of a circus
by focusing on the mind’s “acrobatic” perceptual tricks.
As the
guests enter the exhibition, they are welcomed by a festive, colorful façade
which sets the tone for the sights and sounds they are about to experience.
These interactive exhibits are displayed simultaneously in three adjacent
Rings. Guests can go in any of the Rings in the order they please.
 |
| The 3 Rings of the Science Circus |
Ring One, or Deception Perception is a menagerie of exhibits
that will prompt you to question whether to see is to believe. Can you always
trust your senses? Is what you see as real as it seems? Can your brain produce
motion where there is none? Your first venture into the Circus will unveil the
“blindness” of your mind’s eye.

| Floating Head |
 |
| Automata Circus Performance |
Ring Two highlights Pieces
of Incredible Engineering, where guests can engage their minds in puzzles
and relish how math and art come together. This central area is animated by
simple machines, and engages guests in activities that evoke their inner
engineer.
 |
| Puzzle Play Area |
 |
| Balancing 3D Shapes |
 |
| 3D Cube Puzzle |
Last but
not least, Ring Three is Encounters with the Masters, where
guests can interact with and learn the secrets of the Masters of Illusion. They
can take on the challenges posed by each Master, and discover how our brains
can be ensnared by smoke and mirrors.
