Und was lässt sich beobachten, wenn sich Prozesse verlangsamen? On **Tuesday, December 1,** the Event Physics program at the University of Paderborn will take children ages eight and up, school classes, and families on a journey through time during the spectacular physics show accompanying the special exhibition “Tracing the Clock” at the Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum. Students will demonstrate to their audience how time can be made visible. They’ll demonstrate how slow-motion and time-lapse footage reveal the invisible, how electricity makes metal glow, how a can is crushed in a fraction of a second, and how foam can grow sometimes slowly and sometimes explosively. The focus is particularly on the connections between time and physics: How are speed and acceleration related? Why are correct units of measurement necessary? Visitors can look forward to a spectacular show featuring lightning experiments, vortex rings, an induction cannon, and hydrogen canisters, during which the stage is transformed into a physics lab for 45 minutes. For nearly 15 years, “Event Physics” has been a seminar in which students develop their own astonishing or spectacular experiments on a physical phenomenon. These are then demonstrated to a large audience in public lectures staged as spectacular stage shows. The performances in the HNF auditorium begin at 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. for school groups and at 4 p.m. for families. Additional “Event Physics” performances will take place on February 4 and April 6, 2027, at the HNF. Admission is free. Registration is required.
