“Butterfinger Challenge 2020” La convocatoria ha terminado
eÿeka Express

Almost exactly 7 years ago I came 3rd in a Milner cheese competition (mice burrowing into the cheese shop to get hold of it). I think someone said at the time I was the oldest winner , so perhaps at 71 I have raised the bar a bit more! Using this as a projection I feel my next win is timed to come in 7 years time when I am 78.

Thank you for running these interesting briefs. According to my profile I have had 90 briefs accepted (but also many ruled ineligible which are not shown) which is a 2.2% success rate. Why keep going? Well I have been teaching for around 50 years and creativity was alway a key part of any lesson I taught. My particular “gifts” were using animation as a classroom activity and linking maths and science to art eg anamorphic drawings, reflective art, agamographs phenakistoscopes, exploring mechanisms (cams, friction drive, axles). Creativity is still important to me and although my wife tells me I spend too much time on the computer I still like trying different challenges.
