Roma Agrawal, an engineer who worked on The Shard in London, takes audiences on a creative journey exploring how materials behave when used in unconventional ways. Discover what happens when you build swimming pools from gummy bears, insulate rockets with meringue, or construct a bridge from chocolate. Through these imaginative experiments, Agrawal uncovers the principles behind material science and explains why engineers typically stick with proven materials rather than attempting such audacious feats.
Designed as a family experience combining education with entertainment, this talk welcomes children aged 7–13 and adults equally. While the recommended age is 7–13, audiences of all ages can attend and enjoy the engaging presentation.
