Asking for feedback. I'll be giving an on-line talk in mid-December and need to choose a title. The audience is interested students, 16+, and adults. Possible titles:

"Maths in a Twist: Beyond the Moebius Strip"

and

"Doodles to Dollars: How colouring can win a million dollar prize"

Which sounds more intriguing, and what more would you like to know?

@ColinTheMathmo depends on the target demographic. If the target is your Average Joe then the second sounds more interesting, where if you're appealing to smart people then the former sounds more interesting.

@Demosthenes Hmm. These are people choosing to "attend" a pair of "Christmas Lectures" being given by a Maths Society. Which demographic would you expect them to fall into?

@ColinTheMathmo they would be in the smart group. Discuss the mobius strips IMO.

@Demosthenes OK, one vote for "Maths in a Twist".

I wonder how the vote will go.
