Imagine Education builds rich, story-based math games- learning environments- where students ask questions about math with a natural curiosity that forms their relationship to the subject. Students meet math with authentic purpose, where it is embedded and contextualized in a story coherent with the content, fundamentally creating the foundation to not only math, but learning in general.

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments. Arduino can sense the environment by receiving input from a variety of sensors and can affect its surroundings by controlling lights, motors, and other actuators.

The Symphony of Science is a musical project of John D Boswell, designed to deliver scientific knowledge and philosophy in musical form. The project owes its existence in large measure to the classic PBS Series Cosmos, by Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan, and Steve Soter, as well as all the other featured figures and visuals.
