Boozology - the science and magic of drinking

 

Peter Macinnis, Jenny Jones, Bernie Hobbs and others
Wednesday, August 26, 1998
Duke of Edinburgh, Pyrmont

This will be an experimental session involving a few brave boozologists, such as Peter Macinnis, Jenny Jones, Bernie Hobbs and others. From it we hope to succeed in preparing a Boozology package that we can polish and use for other sessions. The session will start by discussing some of the finer details of science, alcohol and related matters and then we will launch into booze-related scientific magic! We have invited members from our regular patrons to contribute ideas for hands-on activities and to actually perform some simple experiments. We expect a few frustrated chemists to come forward with some of their tricks. This session is sure to be full of surprises for all! Join us for some informal fun.

SciPub is held the last Wednesday of the month in the Duke of Edinburgh pub, 152 Harris Street, Pyrmont, 2009 from 7-9pm. Telephone (02) 9660 8146. UBD Map ref pg235 P10. Park at Star City if coming by car.
