Psychokinetic Action of Young Chicks

A classic and much discussed experiment on Psychokinetic is described in the paper "Psychokinetic Action of Young Chicks on the Path of An Illuminated Source" by Rene Peoc'h.
The paper is published by "The Society for Scientific Exploration", an organization of scientists and scholars who study unusual and unexplained phenomena and subjects that cross mainstream boundaries.

The Subject

In an initial experiment (Peoc'h, 1986), was established that young chicks aged from 1 to 7 days could attract towards them a robot controlled by a random generator"

Ok, so not the chicks are attracted by the robot but the robot is attracted by the chicks :-)

Believe it or not? Science is not about believing it's about testing, observing and understanding.
So let's try.

The Experiment

At the HackteriaLab 2014 we had by chance the perfect condition to carry out this experiment.

Cindy Lin, amateur naturalist, albeit always tempted to remove living things from their natural environments, "found" three young chicken during the retreat in Bumi Pemuda Rahayu Arts Center.

Helmi Hardian, artist and scientist from Waft Lab, Surabaya contributed a vibrating robot (vibrobot), perfect for experiment.

So we mounted a small candle on that robot and waited for the night to fall.
