Introduction

This permanent exhibition invites the general public to experience the concepts of Physics in a non-intimidating, artistic setting. The omnipresence of Physics in our everyday lives is showcased and its relevance to essentially all other sciences and modern technologies is highlighted.

Included in the exhibition are interactive physics demonstrations, computer simulations, and experiments that will convey the fascination of physics to the general public and the UB community.

The Physics and Arts Summer Institute (PASI) brings high school students from area schools together to create new pieces for the exibition. These students participate in an intensive learning program that ventures to the frontier of 21st Century Physics and the fascinating world of subatomic particles.
