6th Annual Optricks Days at the Discovery Science Center was Sat. & Sun. Feb. 14th & 15th.
One of the OISC's most popular programs is its Optricks Days organized with the help of many friends from the Optical Society of Southern California. Starting with inspirations from Dr. Murty, the Wizard of Light, the Optricks Apprentices work their magic among the guests at the Discovery Science Center each year. This year we will feature presentations and workshops from the new Hogwarts School of Optricks. Optricks Suitcase User's Manual 2008

(Click on the Optricks Days logo above for more details about this event.) The OISC in partnership with the Optical Society of Southern California (OSSC) sponsored our 3rd Annual Optricks Days at the Discovery Science Center in Santa Ana. The 2006 event was organized to focus on the educational aspects of optics and lasers as we had numerous optics educational outreach stations throughout the center and special presentations in the 3D Laser Theater.
This year, in addition to the Optricks Suitcase presentation we have had in the past, a NEW presentation was given by the "Optricks Apprentice". The "Optricks Apprentice" is a protégé of Dr. Murty, The Wizard of Light, and provided illuminating fun times for all.
This is Dr. Murty, The Wizard of Light. The Optricks Apprentice made his first appearances at the 3rd Annual Optricks Days.
Optricks Demos, Optricks Suitcases & Optricks Theme Packs The OISC, OSSC and Discovery Science Center have received a number of grants from the OSA and SPIE to move forward with designing, developing, building and distributing the OPTRICKS materials. These materials have their origin at the OSA Rochester Chapter and over the past three years they have made their have to Southern California. Here they have been presented, modified and adapted to teachers, students and the local outreach community so that during this next academic year we will have new Hands-On Optricks exhibits at the DSC, about 10 Optricks Suitcases to distribute and many Optricks Theme Packets to give away to young people during presentations.
