Someone once told me that he sometimes consulted with galleries and museums who knew him as "Professor Eilenberg from Columbia" without realizing he was a professor of mathematics. | |

So my eyes popped out when I saw this: it sounds very interesting! May I ask how you arranged to do a PhD in fine art but with a CS supervisor? That sounds...nontraditional, to say the least. | |
