Iโ€™ve got a tattoo of Penrose tiles. Does math/geometry count?

That's amazing!!! Well done, dude. Looks absolutely sick. Why this subject in particular?

I like geometric patterns and Penrose tiles are neat, mainly liked how they tile a plane infinitely without repeating. Wish I had a more satisfying answer but there it is.

I had a professor tell me many years ago that I'll make no money or probably be able to get through in the field and if I felt like it was a threat, I shouldn't be there. It was not a mean statement, just a warning for the realities of an underfunded industry. I am still here, just because I think it is neat. Sometimes, that is enough.
