I'm not quite sure how to go about this but here goes.
After senior project/illuminated mathematics, we only got to pick a subject that no one else that had. But, after that project I really wanted to explore a topic that I didn't get to have and that was math as a universal language. I want to discover more about not how numbers came to be, but, rather how everyone uses them. So I would like to investigate numbers through different cultures. For example: We use the roman numeral system like most of the world, but, before the Chinese used roman numerals they had their own way of writing and using numbers. I would want to do a project that explores these differences. By the way, one of my passions is Chinese so I'd be applying it to that.
