Mind Games: The Science of Perception Deception
Presented by William Pack , magic historian and adult educator, our brain decides how we perceive everything around us. It finds patterns and solves problems efficiently, except for when it lies to us.
You’ll experience how optical illusions work, why people fall for scams, and how we make thousands of choices every day that are influenced subconsciously.
William will also give the attendees proven, scientific, actionable techniques to preserve brain health. At the end, you may be left wondering if your brain has a mind of its own.
