Please find attached details of a call for proposals for
contributions to the IoP Scotland "Festival of Physics" which will
take place in Edinburgh on 4/5 Nov. The submission deadline is
Friday 23rd June, 12.00pm.<br>
<br>
The Festival will be "a two-day celebration of the role of physics
in our lives, with an emphasis on cross-disciplinary content that
demonstrates the intersections of science and other forms of
culture, and celebrates the roles of Scottish physicists in the
inventions and discoveries that have shaped our world.<br>
The programme will be family- and teen-oriented during the day, with
events for adults taking place during the evenings.<br>
We are looking for content to be a mixture of hand-on activities,
performances, talks, debates and exhibitions. We particularly
welcome ideas that highlight the links between physics and other
aspects of society, such as art, music, history, languages,
architecture, cuisine, sports and the environment. "<br>
