Einstein @ Glastonbury

To most festival-goers, physics may not have an obvious link with Glastonbury. However, the chance to challenge expectations made it an ideal place for five hardy souls from Graphic Science to go forth and engage with Glastonbury-ites with physics related demonstrations, tricks and quizzes.

Braving the horrendous conditions (and thanking their lucky stars that they were in a camper van and not a tent) members of the team performed tricks including the waterproof hanky and the fantastic alka seltzer rocket (click on the titles to view mpegs of these physics tricks - you'll need Flash!). All of the explanations and more videos can be found in the Physics to Go pack so you can create your own Glastonbury experience, but without the mud!

And, after all that hard work of talking to revellers, wading through mud, taking Einstein to watch the bands - the whole event was evaluated and you can read the final report here.
