The workshop examines relationships between electromagnetic waves, sound, electromagnetic fields and organic chemistry.
Workshop called Dark Wave is moderated by expert mentors who will guide the participants in learning to make an iron solution (ferrofluid) which can help manipulate electromagnetic fields. The workshop will include the making of a device to generate an alternating magnetic field and to channel sound into an electromagnetic field in order to control the previously fabricated ferrofluid solution, i.e. generate different physical forms. This DIY approach can help the participants visualize complex and invisible forms of electromagnetic waves and thus easily understand the basics of physics and mathematics.
