Visualization challenge

Here's something for those ID folks whose taste runs to the information visualization area--the Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge:

The National Science Foundation and the journal Science, published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), invite you to participate in the first Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge.

This new international contest is designed to recognize outstanding achievements by scientists and engineers in the use of visual media to promote understanding of research results. Visualization, especially in science and technology, has a special power to complement and enhance the written word in depicting phenomena, elucidating concepts, revealing new insights, provoking thought and appealing to the imagination -- for both technical audiences and the general public.

Categories include photography, illustration, and multimedia. Hat tip to Karel van der Waarde (on the ID-Cafe list).
