The thunder organ

A drum kit or guitar won’t impress anyone any more: what you need is a thunder organ! Find out how you can use lightning to make thunderously good music with this brilliant invention.

Sparks and facts

How are lightning and thunder created? How do a Van de Graaff generator and a Faraday cage work? What does a Tesla coil do? Our show isn’t just full of experiments that really make the sparks fly, though. You’ll also learn a lot!

Full of (renewable) energy

The great Doctor Elektro show is bursting with energy. Renewable energy, that is! For example, could a lightning bunker supply the whole city of Mechelen with energy? Our show will get you thinking.
