For those who might be interested, my program, "Einstein and Beyond - The
Magic Show" was part of the AMNH Einstein event. It was very well received
and consequently have many bookings for the upcoming year. Through my
presentations at ECSITE last year in Munich, I was invited to make
presentations as part of the WEIZMANN CLORE GARDEN Festival this past spring
in Rehovot, Israel and will be offering the program in part in Barcelon at
the upcoming ECSITE conference. Rather than list all of my upcoming
presentation I will leave you with the basic writeup from the AMNH event.
The program, subtitled "Einstein and Beyond - The Magic Show" is as
enjoyable and informative for young and mature audiences alike. The program
presents discrepant events as analogs of Newtonian mechanics, relativity,
and the quantum world. Many of the principles that will be discussed and
explained are difficult to see in our everyday existence. Using humor,
stagecraft, and lighting, along with laboratory experiments disguised as
magical illusion, Friedhoffer will offer a perspective of science that you
have never seen before
Bob Friedhoffer brings science information and education to the public using
proprietary, unique, innovative forms of exposition that astound, mystify,
entertain and edify. In other words, he makes science interesting and fun.
For further information on his work you may go to his website,

"Then, my good friend, I said, do not use compulsion, but let early
education be a sort of amusement; you will then be better able to find out
the natural bent."
