Abstract

A contest proposal addressed to high-school students at centers across Catalonia is described. The aim of the initiative is to raise awareness of photonics in high schools as well as to explore the role of humanities in science teaching and outreach. A detailed account of the first edition of the activity, with data on participation, results, impact, and feedback from teachers, musicians, and students is presented.
