Title:

Logical Illusions

Location:

Archway 2 - 1:00 pm, Friday 9 October

Abstract:

Visual illusions give us clues about the way our visual system has adapted to typical viewing situations. What clues do logical illusions give us about the way we reason? Can experiments dealing with logical illusions help us to understand why, for example, the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl happened? What are logical illusions, anyway?
