Also there’s this nice artwork that was randomly sitting there beneath some junk.
Minimalist artwork of two longboats with the sun in the distance and a branch of a plant hanging above the water. The color palette is mainly yellow and brown on white. Artwork appears to be made by threading some sort of fiber through the canvas.

Rice is renovating our offices, so I’m cleaning mine out. Who knew I was sharing an office with this masterpiece this whole time?
Cd cover: Doctor Noize Presents… Phineas McBoof Crashes the Symphoney. The cover art features a monkey conductor, a cheering octopus and shark, a colorful bird, and a flamingo and rabbit looking at each other.

This note is so funny to me too I'm obsessed with Paper BOAT
Screenshot from the paper in the post quoted above: A note on the title The title of this paper reflects two aspects of this work, though the connection between them emerged unexpectedly. Initially, we referred to the sets that we introduce as “paper boats” due to their visual resemblance in certain cases to actual paper boats (see the green objects in Figure 1(a)). Subsequently, we observed that this name could also serve as an acronym for “Bruhat Order and Alcovic Tilings”, which is the central theme of the paper (see Figures 1(a) and 1(b) ).
