Free admission, without registration, in German, at Chez Jeannot
Smart alecks debate wild theories and convince the audience of their claims with PowerPoint karaoke. Whoever is best received by the audience wins the coveted "Golden Klugschiss".
They claim as much as they can: "The Brothers Grimm's fairy tales were originally written and retold as thread games", "You didn't know that quantum physics was only invented thanks to playing with threads during coffee breaks?" or "Logically, the idea of Wikipedia comes from complex thread game figures from the Fiji Islands." - Wild theses about "Thread games - a researching exhibition" at Museum Tinguely need to be defended.
But true smart alecks don't just make claims - they can skillfully argue for their theses and convince the audience. Can you tell whether the arguments make sense or not, whether it's a showman or a serious scientist on stage? Could you argue better yourself than the self-proclaimed experts? Don't worry: you have the chance to prove it...
In a playful way, you will learn that even misinformation and wild claims can be cleverly packaged and convincingly presented - so be careful! The Klub der Klugscheisser offers true scientainment: science communication in an entertaining yet educational way! Whoever convinces the audience best can win one of the coveted "Golden Klugschisse".
