Math-O-Vision Contest

The Neukom Institute for Computational Science, at Dartmouth College, is offering prizes for high school students who create 4-minute movies that show the world of equations we live in. In 240 seconds, using animation, story-telling, humor, or anything you can think of, show us what you see: the patterns, the abstractions, the patterns within the abstractions.

This competition is not just for mathematicians, it's for creative people who want to delve into, and show, the world of equations that surrounds us, the way Math fills our world.

This contest is for registered high school students (grades 9-12) and equivalent home schooled students who are at least 13 years of age. To qualify, applicants must be legal residents of the United States. To apply, applicants must create a movie of no more than four minutes in length that is a story inspired by or related to mathematics. Movies will be judged based on creativity, relevance to mathematics, quality, and entertainment value. See website for more details.

Award: $1000-$4000

Deadline: May 1, 2014
