Screen Goddess
IT Calendar
2006-2007

Competitions

In honour of Hedy LaMarr the real world goddess of the silver screen and technologist guru we named our first competition “The LaMarr Code” – a fact finding mission to locate the hidden message in the calendar –. The mission, for those who chose to accept it, was to find the month and solve the message.

In honour of the WWII General Macarthur bureau female ‘code breakers’ we named our second screen goddess competition – “Inspect for Gadgets” every main image has technology items placed somewhere in the image, some obvious, some hidden. The assignment was to number and name all the technology items included in the screen goddess photographs.

In honour of the Australian contingent of women in IT recognised in the calendar – Di Ryall and Anne Moffatt, we developed our “Where’s Wally” style competition, “Desperately Seeking Sonja”. An image of Sonja Bernhardt is included in one of the months – the mission was to discover the month and identify where the image is.
