The thin line between salvation and starvation

A decade of my life is on the verge of salvation from regrets \emph{via} a checkpoint called PhD, which calls for decades of longer commitments if not experimental starvation with limited regrets as an artist.

From ISS to PHD to ICC...

As my PhD in informatics (complex systems) nears its defense (ref. vitae), my artistic journey as a photographer and coffee artist (ref. portfolio)--- not to mention music --- seems to be coming to an end with my failure to support it financially or relate it to my expertise in bio-inspired data mining and complex systems effectively.

Below is a preliminary macro take on my current situation between arts and science using insoluble elements. I have seen science and art overlap everywhere except in my career (lamentably); they are like oil and water no matter what I do. This experimental animation portrays endeavors of scientists/artists who strive to combine both fields incessantly.



Is there any venue, community or event welcoming both sides of the brain?
