The Association of Science and Technology Centres of NZ Inc is a New Zealand body of Science and Technology Centres, formed in 1993 to act as a body to facilitate collaboration and act as a representative body.
For 2010, ASTC(NZ) is joining forces with the Otago Museum to contribute to ASPAC 2010.
The ASPAC 2010 twist draws on several elements to draw together the essence of ASPAC 2010.
SOUTHERN TREASURE: The twist’s colours and shape evoke pounamu, or New Zealand jade – a special treasure of the South.
FRIENDSHIP: The twist is drawn from a popular shape for pounamu pendants – the infinity symbol, representing ongoing friendship.
INTERTWINING: ASPAC 2010 seeks to facilitate sharing of the collective knowledge of the Asia Pacific Science Centre community and experience, drawing on each other for inspiration and ideas.
GROWTH: Like living plants, ASPAC 2010 delegates will have the opportunity to grow, cross fertilise, and extend out our tendrils to each other.
