Immerse yourself in a fascinating evening where science meets popular culture and art. Through two unique talks, we will explore how society perceives the extraordinary, from the figure of the artistic genius and the Marvel mutant to the amazing phenomena of fluorescence and bioluminescence.
Featured talks
- Genius and mutant. Tales of the exceptional: Cristian Roldán (Universidad de Oviedo) analyzes the contrast between the canonized genius and the persecuted mutant, reflecting on difference, resistance, and community.
- Cold light, light of life: Jose Antonio Murillo Pulgarín (UCLM) guides us through live experiments to discover the secrets of fluorescence and bioluminescence, from banknotes and documents to the wonders of nature such as fireflies and deep-sea fish.
