Everything is a wave - let's go surfing! Our interactive exhibition is all about the fascinating world of light and sound waves.

In the opto-acoustic experimental field, you can playfully experience how light is created, propagates and is broken down into colours - and how sound waves ensure that we can hear music and perceive sounds.

Although we see light and hear sound, both waveforms have an astonishing number of similarities, for example they can be reflected, refracted and superimposed.

But can we also hear light and see sound? How do you play football with light or create sounds just by moving in the air?

These are just some of the more than 50 interactive and amazing experiments that await curious young and old researchers at the WELLENREITER.
