24 Oct 2014
Good morning and thank you to all who applied for the In the Air Design Challenge.  It hasn't been easy for the partners to identify the competitors for this challenge: we received many ambitious (sometimes too ambitious) and detailled proposals.  However, we've selected the following competitors:
  • Janis Alnis (Latvia)
  • Dominic Amann (Canada)
  • Ravi Butani (India)
  • Christever del Rosario (New Zealand)
  • Ambrogio Galbusera (Italy)
  • Dragan Knezevic (Serbia)
  • Crystal Knodel (U.S.)
  • Ryan Longlong M. Labutap (Philippines)
  • Manolis Nikiforakis (Greece)
  • Inderpreet Singh (India)
  • Gan Eng Swee (Singapore)
  • Anshul Thakur (India)
  • Frederick Vandenbosch (Belgium)
  • Dale Winhold (Canada)
  • Michael Wylie (U.S.)
You can find out more about their projects by clicking here.
Please note: the final deadline for the challenge has been adjusted to February 27, 2015.
Thanks again, and to our competitors, Good Luck!.

    I'm also glad to see we're with 15 instead of the originally announced 10 competitors

    Yes, you could. But you would be surprised how big Africa actually is when, as kids, we always saw that map showing it smaller than North America. Africa is HUGE! Also, Greenland is tiny...

    You could always use the Peters Map to show the actual area instead of the 3D weirdness of the Mercator Map
