Chad of Uncertain Principles asks what's on our office doors. Here in the Paul Allen Center, our doors are too pretty to put things on, but the little square beside our door is perfect for attaching odds and ends. Here is my door in all its glory:
- A. Quantum computing warning sign. The cat is in a superposition of sleeping and scratching.
- B. Me jumping off a cornice. Weeee! Mmm, cornices.
- C. Spherical cow warning sign. This one causes great confusion in a computer science department.
- D. Villa Sophia in the snow. Our Christmas card.
- E. M.I.A
- F. The Clifford group
- G. Occam warning sign. Occam's razor is prohibited in CSE460. It's as simple as that.
- H. Ad for "Space" an art exhibition.
- I. Rough directions to our wedding in Ashland, Oregon.
- J. A cartoon about why physicists lose snowball fights. Somehow I seem to recall being on the losing side of snowball fights even before I was a physicists. I think it had something to do with the other kids being older and bigger than me.
- K. Danger! Mad computer physicist lurks here!
