Dragonfly Sight: UV Light and Electromagnetic Waves
By:
Explore the electromagnetic spectrum with UV beads. Participants will use UV beads to learn about different types of light and do a wave dance to visualise how waves move. The demonstration will centre a discussion on wavelengths of light humans cannot see but dragonflies can.
This demo pairs well with Dragonfly Colours: Thin-Film Interference and Dragonfly Flight: Waves and Wing Movement. This demo is part of the 2024 SOCK, The Wonders of the Dragonfly.
