 h work to a broad audience. A Science Slam is all about having the creativ
 e freedom to convey your enthusiasm about a topic in any way that you deem
  suitable. You could sing a song\, dance\, bring equipment into stage or d
 o a live demonstration. Slammers are encouraged to use creative freedom to
  think about how to simplify a topic without losing the core message. At t
 he end\, the audience is the judge and decides who wins the competition an
 d becomes the slam master.\n
