Science meets Magic – Neuromentalist Meets Scientist

PhD in Philosophy, Astrophysics and Cosmology. Marco has worked at Technorama for many years. His area of expertise includes exhibit and design concept development. He is a creator and performer of science shows, a trainer for teachers, a science educator, and a consultant for other museums. Marco also regularly appears on stage at “In Vino Scientia” at the Casinotheater Winterthur. He says: “Sometimes I’m a physicist, sometimes a researcher and developer, sometimes an actor and musician – and most of the time, I’m all of that at once.”

What began with a magic kit he received for his 8th birthday has grown into a full-fledged magical show. For him, illusion is more than just a simple trick. “To make an illusion truly work for the audience, knowing a trick isn’t enough,” he says. Controlled (body) language, dexterity, and in-depth knowledge of human psychology – these are the ingredients that make all the difference. The result: awe and amazement when reality and illusion begin to blur.
