Metaphors invite. They contribute to our ability to makes sense of experience as they beacon us to make new (and sometimes playful) connections. In this text, I have created a postmodern metaphor, one willing to joyfully transgress disciplinary boundaries. Melding interviews, iconic images, snippets of academic text, poetry, and the power of metaphor, this festschrift “text” is at once visual, verbal, academic, accessible, and full of motion. Like the scholar whose work it honors (Ken Tobin), it gently pushes us into new questions about the lines we can draw between science and art.

后现代隐喻

隐喻的邀请。当他们指引我们建立新的（有时是好玩的）联系时，它们有助于我们提高经验的能力。在本文中，我创建了一个后现代的隐喻，一个乐于超越学科界限的人。这种节日的“文本”融合了访谈，标志性图像，学术文本的片段，诗歌以及隐喻的力量，同时具有视觉，语言，学术，可访问性和动感十足的特点。就像它的杰出贡献的学者（肯·托宾）一样，它轻轻地将我们推向了关于科学与艺术之间界限的新问题。
