European Researchers‘ Night, 29 September 2023 in Vienna

The picture shows four children and a woman standing at a wooden gutter about one metre wide. The channel is filled with sand. There is a depression in the sand where water flows through. The people at the gutter watch how the flowing water moves the sand and try to direct the flow of water with their hands. In the background you can see a large green door. On the side are many bricks and buckets.
