Numbers Never Lie will be presented as a music video that explores how statistics can both illuminate and distort issues pertaining to politics and social justice. It is produced by Rock In The Classroom which is a nonprofit organization promoting creative arts in education programs. A draft of the video will be included through the email link on the proposal page. The song examines how statistics can be a powerful tool that can empower historically marginalized populations and bolster arguments on the need to take action on environmental issues.

I am Carina Laroza, founder of Scienkidfic Xplorers (based in the Philippines), and we communicate science through a variety of ways, including performing arts! I would like to share a video I created last Christmas, it's a parody of the traditionl song "On The 12 days of Christmas" but instead of "my true love gave to me", it's "my Masters gave to me". It shows the hectic life of a graduate student during Christmas season in a funny way.

Atomic Clock will be presented as a music video poster that explores the interplay between objective time set by clocks and subjective time experienced by humans. It is produced by Rock In The Classroom which is a nonprofit organization that creates topical music videos for educational purposes and general audiences. A draft of our video will be included through the email link on the proposal page. Atomic Clock examines the possibility of time as an illusory construct even as most of us do not apply this principle to our daily lives.
