Culture Night 2026: When Your Brain Tricks You
Experience Culture Night with the Lundbeck Foundation – an event where we are focusing on the brain.
When Your Brain Tricks You
You do not always experience the world exactly as it is. The brain automatically interprets, fills in gaps and makes assumptions - often without you even noticing.
Come and experience optical illusions, colour illusions and simple experiments that reveal how our vision can deceive us - and how we can overlook what is right in front of us.
We will also explore memory: Why do false memories arise, and why can eyewitness testimony be unreliable? Memory is not an archive - memories are recreated every time we recall them.
Thomas Alrik Sørensen, neuroscientist and Associate Professor of Psychology at Aalborg University, is the expert of the evening, and together with the Lundbeck Foundation, he will help you understand why reality is not always quite what you think.
Please note that the event is in Danish.
