Giveaway: Powers of 10 Day

Today, Jan 10, is Powers of 10 Day. As described on wikipedia:

Powers of Ten is a 1977 American documentary short film written and directed by Ray Eames and her husband, Charles Eames. The film depicts the relative scale of the Universe in factors of ten … [and] begins with a view of an man and woman picnicking in a park, which settles on an one-meter-square overhead image of the man reclining on a blanket. The viewpoint, accompanied by expository voiceover by Philip Morrison, then slowly zooms out to a view ten meters across (or 10¹ m in scientific notation). The zoom-out continues (at a rate of one power of ten per 10 seconds), to a view of 100 meters (10² m), then 1 kilometer (10³ m), and so on, increasing the perspective—the picnic is revealed to be taking place in Burnham Park, near Soldier Field on Chicago’s lakefront—and continuing to zoom out to a field of view of 10²⁴ meters, or the size of the observable universe. The camera then zooms back in at a rate of a power of ten per 2 seconds to the picnic, and then slows back down to its original rate into the man’s hand, to views of negative powers of ten—10^-1 m (10 centimeters), and so forth—until the camera comes to quarks in a proton of a carbon atom at 10⁻¹⁶ meter.

To celebrate powers of 10 and the new year, I’m giving away a copy of my artist’s book A Word on Statistics. It uses a 10×10 grid to illustrate Wislawa Szymborska’s poem, a playful look at numbers and human nature. To enter, tell me what you’re looking forward to this coming year, in exactly 6 words, in the comments below. Contest ends Wednesday January 13 at 7am (PT), when I’ll select a commenter at random.
In the meantime, you can see the movie, Powers of 10, here.
