A new Science-centric monthly event for the grown-up set is coming to Bristol Brewery at Ivywild School. SUPER SCIENCE MASHUP is an event styled as a late-night show that tackles both good and bad science in popular culture with demonstrations, presentations, audience participation, expert panels, comedy, music, trivia, telescope viewings, and a cash bar. The event is hosted by Kyle Sanders, author of the excellent webcomic Carbon Dating, and co-hosted by Yours Truly!
September’s event will take place on Monday the 22nd, doors at 6:30, with programming beginning at 7 and lasting until 8:30. This event is titled “Breaking Beer” in the style of AMC’s hit show Breaking Bad, and is all about common misconceptions of chemistry. Are chemicals bad for you? What’s a toxin? Do hangover cures really work? Demonstrations will include the science and chemistry of beer with Bristol’s brewmasters. The Colorado Springs Astronomical Society will also be providing live telescope viewings on the patio, weather permitting.
SUPER SCIENCE MASHUP is produced in partnership between the Colorado Springs Astronomical Society and the Pikes Peak Skeptics Society. PPSS is a volunteer organization for the promotion of science education and critical thinking.
