Re: FIRST logo symbolism
The original FIRST logo was drawn by Dean's late father, Jack Kamen. It was "re-designed" in 2005/2004? I'm not sure, by FIRST based off the original work.

The redesign was announced in the late part of 2004, just in time for the 2005 season. Technically, both logos were official that season to allow a transition. (That said, some old-logo items persisted, like the water bottles at the Championship or some of the lower-volume volunteer pins, for a couple more years.)

Re: FIRST logo symbolism
I always like to think of the interlocked shapes as a physical representation of the combined work and cooperation of the Sponsors (Triangle), Students (Circle), and Mentors (Square) to compete in FIRST... but maybe that is just me.
