The favorite scientific entertainment of this year’s visitors, both young and older, was a dance with students of the Faculty of Physics of Belgrade University, who explained complicated scientific laws in a simple manner with the help of fire and electricity, dressed specially for the occasion in dancing shoes. Playing with the mind and our senses gained a completely new dimension in the Ames’s Room, which proved to be one of the most interesting corners of the Festival, a space in which the big become small, and the small thanks to science bigger than ever. Many in the spirit of the autumn wanted to learn with the help of the Institute for Biological Research Siniša Stanković about the life of trees and the stories told by the crowns full of multicolored leaves, while others directed their eyes to the stars and distant planets through large telescopes of the Faculty of Mathematics.
