[visionlist] Contest to design the cover of an S&P textbook

[Jeremy Wolfe]

Cover design competition for the 2nd Edition of Wolfe et al., 
Sensation & Perception

The cover of the first edition of Sensation & Perception, by Jeremy 
Wolfe, Keith Kluender, Dennis Levi, Linda Bartoshuk, Rachel Herz, 
Roberta Klatzky, Susan Lederman, and Daniel Merfeld featured a 
lightness illusion by Bart Anderson and Jonathan Winawer based on 
their report in Nature (2005).  Perhaps something of yours could 
grace the cover of the forthcoming second edition. We are having a 
contest to determine the new cover. Send us your ideas; either your 
images from your research or a creation for the occasion.  You do not 
need to include the title or authors. Indeed, if you do, it is likely 
that the publisher will modify the design for the final cover.

The authors will choose the winning image.  The winner will receive a 
$500 honorarium and a copy of the book as a reward and there will be 
a blurb in the front of the book describing the image and its authors.

To submit your image(s) please email a version of modest size 
(ideally less than 1MB) to spcover at sinauer.com.  Submissions must be 
received by July 1st, 2008.  The winner will be notified by email no 
later than August 1st, 2008.

While the submission should not be a huge file, the winning image 
will need to be available as a high resolution image, suitable for 
printing at 8.5" x 11". The publisher reserves the right the use a 
portion of the image or to adjust the colors as necessary unless 
expressly forbidden by you in the email submission of your image. The 
image should be yours to give (meaning there are no other potential 
copyright holders) and you will be required to sign an agreement with 
the publisher, Sinauer Associates, Inc., giving your permission to 
use the image on the book, the company and book websites, as well as 
on any marketing or ancillary materials created for the textbook.
