Twentieth Circular Letter
Subject: ICM98-CL20: ICM'98-VideoMath/Call for Videos
Dear colleague:
The International Congress of Mathematicians 1998 (ICM'98) will
host "VideoMath", a festival of the most outstanding mathematical
videos, to be publicly shown in a fullsized theater at ICM'98
in August 1998 in Berlin.
VideoMath is part of the "cultural program" at ICM'98, and shall
attract a broad audience: ICM attendees, students, teachers, and
the proverbial man-in-the-street with an inclination towards
mathematics. Performances are open to the public and will take
place during the period of the conference.
Entries for VideoMath are solicited from all areas of mathematical
visualization and computer graphics. Submissions should meet the
highest standards of mathematical content, visualization techniques,
artistic design, and technical quality. An international program
committee will select the best contributions for inclusion in the
festival show. A PRIZE of DM 5000 will be awarded to recognize the
most outstanding contribution. The deadline for submissions is
April 3, 1998.
Please, inform collegues at your department and motivate visualization
experts to submit videos. A poster with a "Call for Videos" has
recently been sent to many institutions world-wide.
Detailed information about the festival and the submission process is
available at
http://www-sfb288.math.tu-berlin.de/VideoMath/
For inquiries and requests to poster and information material, please,
send an e-mail to
video-math@zib.de
We thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Hans-Christian Hege (ZIB Berlin)
Konrad Polthier (TU Berlin)
VideoMath Organizing Committee
