Hackers (hardware engineers) and painters - II

Paul Graham might have a point after all...

"Debugging", Paul Graham said, "is as relaxing as painting a wall". This guy literally spent his time painting a wall when he was supposed to have been debugging!

I like the mural but think that the artist provided too much interpretation of his own work. Not only does it make the inspiration and the process seem a little ordinary but also stifles the viewer's response. If I hadn't read what he wrote, I would have probably made some connection to the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie trailers.
