(MATH JINGLE) – JUNIOR LEVEL
There is geometry in the humming of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres. Mathematics is the music of reason. Mathematics is the basis of sound, and sound itself, in its musical aspects, exhibits a remarkable array of numbers and properties.
What could be a better medium to communicate math to the public than the universal language of music? Ever since Pythagoras used numerical terms to express the interval between notes and derived musical tones from geometrical patterns, mathematics has linked music to numbers. So, our competition, entitled Numeric Jazz, is a combination of numbers and melody on a definite tune.
RULES:
1) A team of 3 participants from the Junior Level will represent each school.
2) The participants need to come prepared with a Math Jingle and present the same on a definite tune.
3) The time allotted will be 2 minutes.
4) A musical instrument may be used by the team, which must be played by one of the three participants only. Use of Karaoke is not allowed.
5)The jingle will be judged based on lyrics, melody, rhythm, presentation and the extent to which it relates to Mathematics.
6) The decision of the judges will be final.
