Why does our voice sound so silly when recorded? Can you build a human circuit? Or turn water into real fake snow? Through fun and engaging experiments, German scientist and celebrity Jo Hecker makes abstract scientific phenomena palpable and comprehensive to children and adults alike. A memorable and interactive event for the whole family.
Joachim Hecker studied electrical engineering and, after finishing his diploma, worked as a designing engineer at a major research institution. Since 1995 he has been working for Public German Broadcast at the West German Radio Station (WDR) in Cologne and for 18 years he has been a science editor and first reporter in the editorial department for science.
For more than 15 years Jo Hecker has also been the author of the series “Hecker’s Wizard’s Kitchen – Experiments for Kids” for the WDR.
Jo Hecker has taken the experiments from his books and made his own, interactive science show with which he performs nationally and internationally.
