“Face it” seems to be the theme of the 10th Edinburgh International Science
Festival, which runs until 19 April. You can explore the science behind face
recognition or see how computer graphics can pull and push images to show how
faces evolve with age. Light relief includes spontaneous human combustion,
fireworks and even a science book festival. Festival office: 0131 473 2070 or
