M///ATH - a deck of cards about math

This is a series of 15 cards about math concepts ranging from simple to abstract. Every card is interactive, and can be popped up, expanded, bent, slid, rolled, or stretched. 
 
The intention of these cards is to target people who claim to hate math, and show them that the subject they once thought of as dry, and unnaccessible can be beautiful and intriguing. 
 
None of the cards are intended to teach an entire math concept start to finish. Each one is designed to spark intrigue and to be picked up and played with, all with the end goal to create a further desire to learn more about what concepts are being described in each card.
 
The cards are housed in a custom wooden box with a slot for each card to be placed in. This arrangement allows the user to pick up any card as soon as they've opened the box.
