I find it's interesting that kids are teaching each other linear algebra (at
least matrix manipulation) to use in animation after finding math too boring
in school.  I think that even if math isn't a focus for the Contagious Fun
project, there should at minimum be a chapter devoted to the math you need
for multimedia.  Perhaps you'd be interested in taking this on?

I like the idea of creating a showcase to inspire kids to learn more (math
and other things).  I don't see it as duplicative of the Resources CD,
rather I would hope that as our project matures it might be included on the
Resources CD.
