Brand new class for 2023, and updated curriculum for 2024. This class was already so cool and fun, but we are adding an art spin to incorporate several rad projects like perspective photography illusions and a glowing gallery. We need to make good use of all the black lights, right?!
Did you know that the physics of light is what helped humanity create all kinds of mind-blowing technologies, like telescopes, cameras, and virtual reality? And the best part? The world of optics is growing faster than a high-speed laser beam! That’s where we come in! In this class, we’ll teach you all about the amazing engineering that must be done to light the way to the future!
And that’s not all, we’ll be building some epic stuff! We’re talking about making 3D glasses that will make you feel like you’re part of the action, pinhole cameras that capture stunning pictures, create florescent glowing paintings and art, and even attempt to hide from an IR camera (spoiler alert: it won’t work, but it will be super cool!). And get this, we’ll also uncover the mind-blowing optical properties of something as simple as corn syrup!
