Science + Art

See our Science category Yuesen's tip on the different genres of Science and Art cross pollination. Get Inspired and join us!

Science & Art

5 categories

Will be judged mainly on creativity 40% , cross-discipline 20%, completeness 20%, difficulty 20%

3D Printing and Art

  •  We welcome participants to explore the intersection of technology and creativity; where engineering meets artistic expression. 3D printing has revolutionized the way we create, allowing for intricate designs and innovative solutions that challenge traditional artistic boundaries. It could be used to explore any category, like animals, architecture, tools, gadgets, etc. 

Kinetic Sculptures

  • Challenges participants to fuse art and engineering by creating dynamic sculptures that incorporate movement and interactivity. Kinetic sculptures push the boundaries of traditional art forms, inviting viewers to engage with art in new and exciting ways. Simple materials like dowels, springs, and gears could be used to engineer a piece that moves and interacts with the space surrounding it; combining aesthetics with mechanics. 

Artistic Circuits

  • Invites participants to blend the worlds of art and electronics, creating innovative pieces that utilize circuits and technology as integral components of their artistic expression. Participants can create “drawings” using conductive ink or paint on paper. When completed, they can integrate LEDs or small buzzers into their designs, allowing their artwork to light up or make sound when connected to a battery.

Architectural 3D Modeling

  • By using CAD or other platforms, participants create detailed 3D models of architectural structures, focusing on aesthetics, functionality, and environmental context. It could be a single building or a cluster, colorful and artistic designs are truly desired.

Drawing Robots

  • Aims at having students design and build simple drawing robots using motors, batteries, and basic materials like cardboard. They can experiment with different mechanisms to create unique patterns and artwork as the robot moves. Both the engineering components used and the final art product matters for the final judgment.
